From 2024 to 2026, the direct material input of marble, granite, sandstone, porphyry, and basalt in Italy remains stable at 0.44 metric tons per capita. A modest increase in 2027 and 2028 at 0.45 metric tons per capita indicates slight growth. The year-on-year variation from 2026 to 2027 shows a 2.27% increase, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the five-year period starting in 2024 being minimal due to the stability in consumption values. The 2023 reference point was not indicated explicitly for actual values.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential changes in construction demand impacting stone materials.
- Innovations in sustainable building techniques potentially altering material needs.
- Regulatory changes around mining and environmental preservation affecting supply.
