The import of stone setts, curbstones, and flagstones (excluding slate) to the UK is projected to steadily increase from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the value stood at approximately $110 million, setting a base for future forecasts. A year-on-year growth trend indicates a consistent increase, with slight variations annually, leading to a cumulative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that reflects this positive trajectory.
Key future trends to watch include:
- Potential impacts of Brexit on import regulations and costs.
- Fluctuations in global stone supply chains and prices.
- UK domestic infrastructure development affecting demand.
