Canada's re-import of hydrogen fluoride (hydrofluoric acid) is projected to rise consistently from 2024 to 2028, starting at 16.01 thousand kilograms in 2024 and reaching 18.5 thousand kilograms by 2028. This reflects modest year-on-year increases in volume, with the projected average annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period measuring approximately 3.6%. Notably, the figures for 2023 serve as a baseline but are unavailable for exact comparison.

Future trends to watch include:

Fluctuations in global demand driven by industrial needs, especially in electronics and pharmaceuticals.
Policy changes influencing the import and handling of hazardous materials.
Technological advancements that might either increase domestic production or reduce the dependency on imports.
