The forecast for the import of non-electrical articles of graphite or other carbon to France indicates a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, with values rising from 6.765 million kilograms in 2024 to 7.358 million kilograms in 2028. In 2023, the actual imports stood significantly lower, setting a baseline for this growing trend.
The year-on-year growth rates highlight a moderate yet consistent rise: 2.26% from 2024 to 2025, 2.17% from 2025 to 2026, and 2.08% from 2026 to 2027, with a slowing increment towards 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this forecast period is around 2.16%.
Future trends to watch include potential disruptions in supply chains or changes in global demand for graphite and carbon materials, which may impact import volumes to France. Additionally, technological advancements and industry shifts towards renewable and sustainable alternatives could influence these imports.
