Forecast: Volume of In-port Mineral Building Materials Handled in Main Coastal Ports in China

The volume of in-port mineral building materials handled in China's main coastal ports is expected to steadily increase. In 2023, it was approximately 40 million metric tons. Forecasts project volumes from 40.85 million metric tons in 2024 to 43.19 million metric tons in 2028. This suggests a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 1.42% over these five years. The year-on-year growth rates indicate a consistent increase of approximately 1.47% annually.

Future trends to watch include technological advancements in port operations, policy changes impacting trade, and shifts in construction activity across China. These factors could influence the demand and capacity for handling mineral materials.
