Forecast: Import of Cold Drawn Bars and Solid Profiles of Non Alloy Steel to France

The forecast for the import of cold drawn bars and solid profiles of non-alloy steel to France indicates a slight and consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 176.97 million kilograms in 2024, the quantities are expected to decrease by approximately 0.28% year-on-year, settling at 175.18 million kilograms by 2028. In 2023, the figure stood slightly higher, marking the beginning of this gradual downward trend. Analyzing the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period reveals a minor contraction, highlighting a persistent but gentle downtrend.

Future trends to watch for include shifts in global steel demand, changes in EU trade policies, and advancements in steel manufacturing technologies. These factors may influence import volumes, potentially altering the current forecast trajectory.
