In 2023, the import volume of hydraulic cements, excluding Portland or aluminous types to France, stood at 169 million kilograms. The forecast for 2024 onwards indicates a significant downtrend, with values dropping consistently each year until 2028. Year-on-year variations show a decreasing trend exceeding 15% annually during this period, while the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reveals an overall average reduction of approximately 23.5% per year over the five-year span.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential changes in construction demand which could affect import volumes.
Regulatory changes concerning environmental impacts favoring greener alternatives.
Economic conditions in France influencing infrastructure investments and therefore, cement demand.
