In 2023, Japan's import of Oxirane, expressed in value, amounted to 655.12 thousand US Dollars. Forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 shows a decreasing trend, with imports declining from 642.24 thousand US Dollars in 2024 to 593.39 thousand US Dollars by 2028. The year-on-year variation indicates a gradual decrease, averaging a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of approximately -2.04% over this period. The consistent decline suggests a slowdown in demand or increased domestic production capacity.

Future trends to watch include:

Shifts in industrial production requiring ethylene oxide in Japan.
Changes in trade policies or tariffs affecting import prices.
Innovations in alternative materials that might reduce reliance on ethylene oxide.
Global supply chain dynamics and their impact on pricing.
