In 2023, Brazil imported a certain amount of natural graphite, excluding powder or flakes. From 2024 onwards, a clear downward trend is observed in the forecasted data, with import volumes expected to decrease year-on-year. Specifically, imports are projected to decline by approximately 13.43% in 2025, 15.14% in 2026, 17.51% in 2027, and 20.90% in 2028. Over the five-year forecast period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) illustrates an average annual decrease in import volumes.

Future trends to watch for:

Global demand for graphite and technological advancements in alternative materials may further impact imports.
Brazilian domestic production could influence future import needs.
Potential environmental regulations and shifts in strategic sourcing and supply chain dependencies may also affect import levels.
