The data reveals a steady increase in the forecasted import volume of steel tubes and pipes with a square or rectangular cross-section and a thickness greater than 2 mm to France. From 2024 to 2028, the import volume is expected to grow from 298.74 million kilograms to 328.35 million kilograms. This translates to a year-on-year growth rate of approximately 2.5% to 2.6% annually. In 2023, the import volume stood at 291.25 million kilograms, indicating a consistent upward trend.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in France's infrastructure spending, which could drive demand for construction materials such as steel tubes and pipes. Additionally, shifts in global steel trade policies or technological advancements in welding and steel forming might impact future import volumes.
