The forecast for the import of industrial diamonds, pumice stone, emery, natural corundum, and natural garnet to Germany indicates a declining trend over the forecast period from 2024 to 2028. The volume is expected to decrease steadily from 18.999 million kilograms in 2024 to 15.528 million kilograms by 2028. In 2023, the import volume was slightly higher than the 2024 forecast, indicating a contracting demand or supply challenges for these materials. Year-on-year, the average variation reflects a decreasing trend, and the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next five years suggests a continuous decline in volume annually.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in industrial demand, potential advancements in material alternatives, and geopolitical factors that may impact supply chains. Additionally, sustainability initiatives and technological innovations in sectors that use these materials might influence future import volumes.
