The import of granules of pig iron or spiegeleisen to France is on a declining trend, with the forecast from 2024 to 2028 showing a decrease in value from 13.575 million USD to 11.808 million USD. In 2023, the import value was not specified, making it difficult to determine the exact percentage changes year-on-year. However, the data indicates a gradual annual decrease in imports averaging over the forecast period, suggesting a consistent downward pattern.
Future trends to watch for:
- Changes in global demand and supply dynamics of pig iron could impact import values.
- France’s domestic production capabilities and capacity development in the steel industry might influence import needs.
- Trade policies, tariffs, or economic relations with major exporting countries will also need to be monitored.
