The import of marble granules, chippings, and powder to the UK is expected to see a gradual decline from 12.55 million USD in 2024 to 11.99 million USD by 2028. This marks a year-on-year decrease of approximately 1.15% from 2024 to 2025, continuing at similar rates in subsequent years, leading to a cumulative annual growth rate (CAGR) of about -1.15% over the forecasted period. As of 2023, this value was slightly higher just before the downturn began.
Future trends to watch include:
- Fluctuations in construction and infrastructure development that influence demand for marble derivatives.
- Potential policy and trade adjustments post-Brexit affecting import dynamics.
- Advancements in sustainable construction materials which might impact the use of traditional materials like marble.
