The forecast for the re-import of pipe fittings of non-malleable cast iron to France shows a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028, with the volume decreasing each year by 449.37 to 379.63 thousand kilograms. Compared to 2023, this data anticipates a year-on-year decrease averaging about 4% annually, amounting to a cumulative decline when seen over the five-year period. These figures indicate a negative compound annual growth rate over the forecasted timeline, highlighting a steady downward trend.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in global trade policies, technological advancements in material sciences that could impact usage, and economic factors that may adjust demand. Additionally, shifts toward more sustainable materials might affect the re-import market negatively for non-malleable cast iron.
