Is 2025 Really a Breakout Year for Pipe To***co Imports?

The 5 year trend says yes but with an important caveat.

U.S. packaged pipe to***co imports climbed from just 207,000 kg in 2020 to roughly 567,000 kg in 2021, then increased sharply to 1.43 million kg in 2022 before pulling back in 2023.

That places the 2025 increase in a broader context.

Rather than a completely new trend, 2025 looks more like the market regaining momentum after the sharp correction that followed the massive Indonesia spike in 2022.

The bigger story may not be rapid growth.

It may be that the market appears to be operating at a materially higher import baseline than before 2021.

That is a very different signal for manufacturers, importers, and regulators watching long term category demand.

Imports of pipe parts more than doubled through September 2025, largely driven by higher volumes from Indonesia, Jordan, and Mexico. At the same time, imports of finished pipes and bowls declined in traditional materials such as wood and clay, while plastics and NESOI-classified products increased, pointing to ongoing shifts in manufacturing and consumer preferences.
