In 2023, the Netherlands led the European export of unwrought nickel at 169.09 million kg, followed by Finland at 44.713 million kg, then the UK at 32.351 million kg. Germany and Belgium also contributed significantly. France and Italy show minimal export values, with France experiencing a notable decline by -7.93% compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, Greece saw the largest positive change at 8.06%, suggesting smaller players may fluctuate significantly.
Future trends to watch include the potential for increased exports from Denmark, Croatia, and Greece, given their high recent growth rates. Monitoring the effects of regulations on mining and environmental policies on production and trade may impact these trends. Geopolitical and economic factors could further influence supply chains and market demand for unwrought nickel.
