The import of gantry and overhead travelling cranes on fixed support to the UK is forecasted to experience a continued decline from 2024 to 2028, with volumes starting at 2.1186 million kilograms in 2024 and decreasing steadily to 1.8029 million kilograms by 2028. This reflects a declining year-on-year trend, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period indicating a consistent average annual reduction.

Future trends to watch for:

Technological advancements in crane design that might influence import volumes.
Shifts in the UK's construction and manufacturing sectors potentially affecting demand.
Global economic conditions and trade policies impacting import activity.
