In 2023, France's import of non-agglomerated metal carbides was projected at a level consistent with previous years. From 2024 onward, a gradual decrease in import volumes is forecasted, falling from 383.46 to 377.14 thousand kilograms by 2028. This represents a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -0.4% over the five years. The year-on-year decline is modest, reflecting a slight reduction attributed to possible market stabilization and reduced demand.
Future trends to watch for include potential advancements in domestic production capabilities, shifts in global supply chains, and any legislative or trade policy changes that could impact import dynamics in France.
