In 2023, Italy imported approximately 14.45 million kilograms of anti-freezing preparations and de-icing fluids. Forecasts indicate a steady increase in imports, reaching about 15.89 million kilograms by 2028. This represents an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of roughly 1.89% over the five-year period starting from 2024. The year-on-year growth remains consistent, showing a moderate and stable demand for these substances.

Looking ahead, several trends could impact these forecasts:

Climate change patterns may alter seasonal demand for de-icing solutions.
Innovation and improvements in anti-freezing and de-icing technologies may influence import volumes.
Regulatory changes concerning environmental impacts of chemical agents could shift preferences towards more sustainable options.
