In 2023, the import of dies for drawing or extruding metal stood at a volume still underpinning the current forecast trends, which indicate a gradual year-on-year decline through 2028. Each year from 2024 to 2028 shows a minor decrease, approximately 0.3% annually, with the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) illustrating a slight contraction of the market. Variations over the past two years, however, establish a consistent trend of decrease.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential innovations in metalworking technology that could influence import demands.
Shifts in domestic manufacturing may impact the necessity and volume of these imports.
Global trade policies and international economic factors could further affect market dynamics.
