In 2024, Germany leads the European import of zinc bars, rods, profiles, and wire with 45.406 million kilograms. France follows closely with 40.847 million kilograms, reflecting a stable growth. Austria, Belgium, and Italy also demonstrate significant import volumes, with Belgium experiencing a notable decrease of 3.62% year-on-year. Poland, with a growth of 2.24%, matches Italy's growth trends. Spain shows a significant decline, with an 8.1% reduction from the previous year, indicating a challenging market environment. Similarly, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia face declines in imports.
Future trends to watch include a potential increase in imports by countries like Portugal and Finland, displaying 5.84% and 19.72% growth respectively from the prior year. New strategies or trade agreements may further influence the import dynamics in Denmark, Greece, and Croatia, which have shown positive albeit smaller growth. Attention should also be paid to smaller markets like Malta, as they exhibit substantial year-on-year variation, suggesting volatility and potential for strategic growth in niche markets.
