The import of refractory ceramic constructional goods to Switzerland stood at an actual value of 12.275 million US dollars in 2023. From 2024 onwards, the forecast indicates a gradual decline:
- 2024: 12.138 million US dollars (Year-on-Year variation: -1.12%)
- 2025: 12.006 million US dollars (Year-on-Year variation: -1.09%)
- 2026: 11.877 million US dollars (Year-on-Year variation: -1.09%)
- 2027: 11.75 million US dollars (Year-on-Year variation: -1.07%)
- 2028: 11.626 million US dollars (Year-on-Year variation: -1.06%)
The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five years from 2024 to 2028 is approximately -1.1%, indicating a consistent, albeit slight, downward trend in import values.
Future trends to watch for include key economic and industrial factors that may impact the demand for refractory ceramics in Switzerland. Advancements in alternative materials, domestic production capabilities, and shifts in industry requirements may influence import levels. Additionally, global trade policies and international market dynamics will be critical factors to monitor.
