In 2023, Italy imported watertube boilers with a steam production not exceeding 45 T per hour at a substantial volume. Forecast data shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, with decreases anticipated each year. Specifically, a decrease of approximately 6% year-on-year is expected between 2024 and 2025, and the trend continues similarly in subsequent years through 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over five years reveals an average annual decline rate.

Future trends to watch for include:

The influence of technological advancements on boiler efficiency and import demand.
Shifts in energy policies towards renewable energy, impacting fossil-fuel-based equipment.
Market competition from domestic producers potentially affecting import volumes.
