In 2023, the import value of backed foil of refined copper to France stood at a significant point before entering into a clear declining trend from 2024 onwards. The forecast for 2024 is at 17.278 million USD, marking a starting point for a year-on-year decrease: a 3.7% reduction in 2025, followed by similar downward trends each consecutive year through to 2028, where the forecasted import value drops to 14.784 million USD.

Future trends to watch include potential impacts of technological advancements increasing copper alternatives, fluctuations in global copper prices, trade agreements affecting copper trade, and shifts in France's industrial demand influenced by environmental policies or innovations in industries relying on copper products. Keeping an eye on these elements will be crucial for predicting and adjusting strategies around the import of backed foil of refined copper.
