In 2023, the import volume of tiles and flagstones made of cement, concrete, and artificial stone to the US stood at 106.20 million kilograms. The forecast for 2024-2028 indicates a gradual decline, dropping to 103.33 million kilograms by 2028. Year-on-year percentage changes reflect steady declines: -0.55% (2024-2025), -0.54% (2025-2026), -0.54% (2026-2027), and -0.53% (2027-2028). The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period is approximately -0.7%, indicating a consistent, albeit slow, decrease in import volumes.
Future trends to watch include environmental regulations impacting production and importation, shifts towards sustainable building practices, and domestic production capabilities. These factors may further influence the US demand for imported tiles and flagstones in the coming years.
