In 2023, Germany's railway transport volume of explosives stood at 61.0 thousand metric tons. The forecast data suggests a consistent year-on-year decline: 2024 sees a 8.2% decrease to 56.0, 2025 shows a further 8.9% drop to 51.0, 2026 continues with a 9.8% reduction to 46.0, 2027 notices another 10.9% decline to 41.0, and 2028 concludes with a 12.2% decrease to 36.0.
This downward trend results in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -10.3% over the five years from 2024 to 2028, reflecting a significant reduction in volume.
Future trends to monitor:
- Regulatory changes impacting explosive transportation.
- Advancements in alternative transport methods or technologies.
- Economic factors influencing demand for explosive materials.
- Strategic partnerships or infrastructure investments in railway networks.
