In 2024, France is forecasted to import fluorspar containing less than 97% calcium fluoride valued at approximately $5.60 million. This marks a continuation from 2023, which serves as a base year for forecast calculations. Over the subsequent years, a steady growth trend is observed, with year-on-year increases in import values—2.50% in 2025, 2.39% in 2026, 2.28% in 2027, and 2.19% in 2028. A compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.34% is expected over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in global supply dynamics affecting fluorspar availability.
- Changes in regulatory frameworks impacting import policies.
- Technological advancements that could alter demand for lower-grade fluorspar.
