Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's aluminium scrap exports, accounting for 72.4% of value but only 67.2% of weight—a Value-Volume Gap signaling premium demand for higher-grade material. China and the U.S. follow as secondary bulk hubs (weight share > value share), suggesting cost-driven processing roles. Belgium and Spain, however, show inverted gaps (value > weight), indicating niche markets for refined scrap. The structure reveals a dual strategy: premium focus on Brazil with secondary bulk flows to Asia. Supply chains here prioritize value capture over volume efficiency.
