In 2023, the import of slotted and cross-recessed screws of stainless steel to France stood at 1.6203 million kilograms. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a slight and steady decline in volume each year, from 1.6196 million kilograms in 2024 to 1.6169 million kilograms in 2028. This represents a consistent year-on-year decrease of approximately 0.04% to 0.05%, with a 5-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) displaying a similar mild decline trend.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in industrial demand, impacts of EU trade policies, technological advances in alternatives to stainless steel, and potential shifts in global supply chain dynamics which could influence import patterns.
