In 2023, the re-import value of asbestos-cement and cellulose fibre-cement to Canada stood at $6.00 thousand USD. From 2024 through 2028, the forecasted re-import value shows a downward trend, declining from $5.81 thousand USD in 2024 to $5.09 thousand USD in 2028. Year-on-year variations demonstrate a consistent decrease, averaging approximately -1.52% annually, with a cumulative annual growth rate (CAGR) of -3.31% over the five-year forecast period.
Future trends to watch include changes in environmental regulations, which could further restrict the use of these materials, impacting demand. Innovations in alternative materials may also affect re-import volumes.
