Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's aluminium scrap exports, accounting for 75.6% of value but only 69.9% of weight, signaling a premium market where higher-value, processed scrap is prioritized. India, the second-largest destination, shows a similar but weaker trend (13.2% value vs. 13.7% weight), suggesting marginal price sensitivity. The absence of a significant value-volume gap elsewhere (e.g., Spain’s 0.7% value share despite 3.3% weight) reveals a trade structure skewed toward bulk, low-margin flows. This implies Paraguay’s export strategy is cost-driven, with Brazil acting as the primary high-value outlet while secondary markets absorb lower-grade material.
