In 2023, the national road freight volume of corrosives in Germany stood at approximately 1.10 billion tonne kilometers. Forecasts for 2024 predict a decline to 1.09 billion tonne kilometers, followed by further slight decreases to 1.07 billion tonne kilometers by 2028. This reflects a gradual decrease with a minimal compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period. The slight year-on-year percentage changes from 2024 onwards suggest a stable, yet gently declining trend in freight volumes.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts of environmental regulations, advancements in transportation technology, and shifts in the chemical industry's demand that may influence freight logistics needs and market dynamics.
