Winding wire market in Poland

Earlier Report Observations

The winding wire market in Poland exhibited strong growth from 2018 to 2024, with its volume expanding from 25 724 tons to 70 620 tons. This upward trend was initially supported by increasing imports, which compensated for variable domestic output in the early part of the period.

Market growth accelerated after 2020, coinciding with a global 13% increase in winding wire production in 2021, which improved supply conditions. A significant local development occurred in 2022 when Prysmian Group expanded its production facility in Poland, directly enhancing the country's manufacturing capacity and contributing to a market volume of 51 139 tons that year.

Sustained demand from key end-use sectors, particularly automotive and renewable energy, alongside the ongoing miniaturization trend in electronics, provided a consistent driver for market expansion throughout the later years, culminating in a market volume of 70 620 tons by 2024.
