In 2023, the import of structures made primarily of iron or steel sheet to Germany recorded a volume of 130.00 million kilograms. Forecasts indicate a steady growth over the next five years, starting with 133.51 million kilograms in 2024, reaching 147.44 million kilograms by 2028. The expected annual growth rate suggests a consistent increase in imports, averaging at approximately 2.5% per annum. This represents a positive outlook for the industry, signaling sustained demand in the German market.

Future trends to watch for include:

Fluctuations in the global steel market, which could affect import volumes and prices.
Germany's construction industry and energy-efficient building initiatives driving demand for insulated steel structures.
Potential trade policy adjustments within the EU or with major steel-exporting countries.
