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.

Reported in USD Billion, the dataset tracks annual export values between 2015 and 2025, serving as an important benchmark for evaluating export competitiveness, industrial production, international trade dynamics, supply chain resilience, and demand from the construction, automotive, packaging, engineering, and manufacturing industries.
Based on the validated data, the Netherlands recorded steady export growth during the period, despite short-term fluctuations. Export value increased from USD 1.55 billion in 2015 to USD 2.33 billion in 2018, before moderating to USD 1.36 billion in 2020 amid weaker global trade conditions. A strong recovery followed, with exports rising sharply to USD 2.71 billion in 2021 and reaching a record USD 3.40 billion in 2022, supported by higher aluminium prices, recovering industrial activity, and stronger international demand. Exports declined to USD 2.13 billion in 2023 but recovered to USD 2.53 billion in 2024 and further improved to USD 2.64 billion in 2025, demonstrating resilient export performance and continued competitiveness in global aluminium markets.
Overall, the dataset provides valuable insights into the Netherlands' aluminium export performance, international trade competitiveness, and industrial supply chain dynamics. It supports global 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 monitor export trends, evaluate international demand, assess commodity price cycles, forecast future export performance, and develop evidence-based strategies that strengthen industrial competitiveness, improve trade resilience, expand export opportunities, and support sustainable long-term economic growth.
