Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
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.
About this indicator
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.
Reported in USD Million, the dataset tracks annual export values between 2015 and 2025, serving as an important benchmark for evaluating export competitiveness, industrial production, trade dynamics, supply chain resilience, and demand from the automotive, construction, engineering, packaging, and manufacturing sectors.
Based on the validated data, Italy's unwrought aluminium exports showed a strong upward trajectory despite short-term fluctuations. Export value declined slightly from USD 734.20 million in 2015 to USD 693.88 million in 2016, before increasing to USD 910.76 million in 2018. Exports moderated during 2019–2020, falling to USD 731.92 million in 2020. A robust recovery followed, with exports rising to USD 1,098.69 million in 2021 and surging to USD 1,696.49 million in 2022, driven by stronger global demand and higher aluminium prices. Export performance remained strong at USD 1,516.32 million in 2023, increased to USD 1,685.27 million in 2024, and reached a new peak of USD 1,857.69 million in 2025, reflecting sustained international demand and improved export competitiveness.
Overall, the dataset provides valuable insights into Italy's aluminium export performance, trade competitiveness, and industrial supply chain dynamics. It supports international benchmarking of unwrought aluminium exports, evaluation of commodity trade trends, and assessment of manufacturing sector performance. Policymakers, aluminium producers, exporters, manufacturers, investors, and researchers can use the data to analyze export trends, monitor global demand, evaluate commodity price cycles, forecast future export performance, and develop evidence-based strategies that strengthen industrial competitiveness, expand export opportunities, and support sustainable long-term economic growth.
