In 2023, the imports of glues based on starches or modified starches to Germany stood at 7.15 million kilograms. Forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 suggests a gradual decline in import quantities. In 2024, the import volume is expected to be 7.095 million kilograms, decreasing steadily each year to 6.8739 million kilograms by 2028. The year-on-year variation indicates a downward trend over the five-year forecasted period.
The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the next five years indicates an average annual decrease in import volumes. This trend may suggest potential shifts in domestic production efficiency or changes in consumption patterns.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Advancements in domestically produced glues that may reduce dependency on imports.
- Shifts in industrial demand driven by sustainability goals, favoring locally sourced materials.
- Potential changes in trade policies affecting import costs and accessibility.
