The re-import of tubes and pipe of aluminium alloys to the UK is forecasted to decrease from 1.56 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 1.3 thousand kilograms by 2028. This represents a consistent year-on-year decline in volume, with an average annual decrease (CAGR) over the five-year period of approximately 3.57%. In 2023, the re-import stood at 1.62 thousand kilograms, indicating a downward trend starting prior to the forecasted period.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from technological advancements in aluminium production and recycling, changes in UK trade policies post-Brexit, and global market dynamics that could influence demand and supply patterns for aluminium products.
