Data definition
Unwrought Aluminium Export — – Unwrought Aluminium Export refers to the total monetary value of unwrought aluminium exported by a country during a specified period, measured in current U.S. dollars. The indicator is based on Harmonized System (HS) Code 7601, which covers aluminium in its primary, unworked form, including non-alloyed and alloyed aluminium. It reflects a country's export performance in primary aluminium and its participation in the global aluminium trade.
The data includes exports of products classified under HS Code 7601, including non-alloyed unwrought aluminium, unwrought aluminium alloys, primary aluminium in ingots, billets, slabs, sows, T-bars, and other unworked forms. It covers exports recorded by official customs authorities and reported through the International Trade Centre (ITC) Trade Map based on UN Comtrade national customs statistics.
The data excludes aluminium products that have undergone further processing, such as aluminium bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strips, foil, tubes, pipes, structures, castings, fabricated products, and finished aluminium goods classified under other HS codes. It also excludes aluminium scrap and waste (HS 7602), domestic production not exported, and informal or unrecorded export transactions not captured by official customs statistics.

Measured in USD Million, the available dataset indicates exports of USD 432.16 million in 2015, increasing to USD 507.30 million in 2016 and USD 674.21 million in 2017, demonstrating strong export growth during the early years of the review period. The dataset then records USD 42.99 million for a later reported year, indicating a significant decline in export value compared with earlier observations. As the remaining years between 2018 and 2025 are not available in the provided dataset, a continuous year-by-year trend cannot be established. Nevertheless, the available figures suggest that Argentina's unwrought aluminium exports have experienced notable fluctuations, reflecting the influence of global aluminium prices, domestic production levels, export competitiveness, and changing international market conditions. The dataset serves as an important resource for analyzing trade performance, monitoring commodity export trends, evaluating industrial production, and assessing the country's position within the global aluminium market. It also supports benchmarking against major aluminium-exporting economies, evaluating the impact of trade policies, forecasting future export opportunities, and identifying investment prospects within the metals and mining sector. Furthermore, the dataset provides valuable insights for policymakers, exporters, manufacturers, investors, and market researchers studying Argentina's aluminium industry and its contribution to international trade. Additional yearly data for the missing period would enable a more comprehensive assessment of long-term export trends and market performance between 2015 and 2025.
