The import of non-electric industrial or laboratory furnaces and ovens to China is on a declining trajectory from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the import value was higher compared to the forecasted figures for 2024 and beyond. Year-on-year declines suggest a moderate contraction in demand, with imports shrinking by approximately 3-5% annually. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five forecasted years indicates a steady decrease, affirming this downtrend.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts towards domestic production or an increase in technological advancements that may reduce dependency on imports.
- Changes in regulatory policies or economic conditions that could impact industrial investments.
- Developments in alternative technologies that might replace traditional non-electric furnaces and ovens.
