In 2024, the forecast for the re-import of aluminium structures and parts for construction to China stands at 1.2848 million kilograms, continuing from a 2023 baseline. The subsequent year-on-year growth rates for projected imports are 4.17% in 2025, 3.91% in 2026, 3.7% in 2027, and 3.49% in 2028, reflecting a steady upward trend in volume. Over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is projected to be approximately 3.82% per annum, indicating a consistently increasing demand for these materials.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts from policy changes in environmental regulations affecting the construction industry.
Innovations in aluminium recycling technology that might alter re-import dynamics.
Shifts in global trade agreements influencing the construction supply chain.
