The import of articles of plaster, other than plasterboard, to Italy shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, starting from 5.513 million kilograms in 2024 and decreasing steadily to 4.912 million kilograms by 2028. Compared to 2023, the forecast indicates a consistent year-on-year reduction, averaging around 2.25% annually. The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting this five-year span reveals a negative growth trend, underscoring the shrinking market demand for such imports.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential impacts of sustainability initiatives driving demand towards recyclable or alternative materials.
- Shifts in construction trends and architectural preferences possibly affecting the consumption of plaster articles.
- Trade policy changes and economic conditions impacting import dynamics and costs.
