Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2020, the market volume for dies for drawing or extruding metal in Belgium expanded sharply in physical terms, rising from 692 t to 3 742 t. This growth was accompanied by a notable decline in market value from $29 091 thousand to $16 411 thousand, reflecting lower average prices or a shift in import composition during the period.

Following 2020, import volumes trended downward, reaching 997 t in 2024, while exports remained relatively stable. This contraction in imports coincided with rising material costs across Belgium's construction and metallurgy sectors in 2024, which dampened demand for industrial inputs and finished metal products.

The implementation of the European Union's Critical Raw Materials Act in May 2024 began reshaping supply chains for metals, while the growing adoption of metal additive manufacturing introduced new technological dynamics within the industry.
