In 2023, the import volume of 1-Chloro-2,3-Epoxypropane (Epichlorohydrin) to Brazil was 10.3 million kilograms. Forecasts for 2024 to 2028 show a gradual decline, with volumes decreasing from 10.259 million kilograms in 2024 to 10.155 million kilograms by 2028. The year-on-year variations reveal a consistent but slight reduction in imports, indicating a steady decrease in demand or potential shifts in local production capabilities. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period implies a slight negative trend in import volumes.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential developments in local production capacity that could further reduce import dependency.
- Regulatory changes that may affect import tariffs or environmental policies impacting Epichlorohydrin usage.
- Market demand shifts due to changing industrial or consumer use patterns in Brazil.
