The forecasted import of unwrought non-alloy zinc into Italy shows a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting from 79.995 million kilograms in 2024, it drops to 52.915 million kilograms by 2028. Year-on-year declines are evident, with a clear pattern of decreasing import volumes. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests an average annual reduction over the five-year period. In 2023, the import volume stood higher than any projected figure from 2024 onwards.
Future trends to watch include potential market disruptions due to geopolitical tensions, changes in Italian industrial demand, and advancements in recycling technologies which might impact zinc import requirements. Additionally, economic policies and environmental regulations may further influence these forecasts.
