In 2023, Germany imported approximately 9.95 million kilograms of salts of oxometallic and peroxometallic acids. The forecast for the 2024-2028 period shows a downward trend, with a consistent year-on-year decrease in import volumes. Specifically, the imports are expected to decrease from 9.75 million kilograms in 2024 to 8.98 million kilograms in 2028, reflecting an average annual decrease of 1.5% over these five years.

Future trends to watch for:

Impact of global trade policies and regulations on import levels.
Technological advancements that may alter the demand for these salts.
Potential shifts in domestic production capabilities within Germany.
Changes in the automotive and electronics industries, major consumers of these compounds.
