Forecast: Import of Gravure Printing Machinery to Germany

The import of gravure printing machinery to Germany shows a forecasted decline from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the import volume stood at 133.95 thousand kilograms, demonstrating a consistent reduction year-on-year, with each subsequent year displaying a lower import volume. Specifically, the import volume is expected to decline through 2028, marking an overall downward trend.

Year-on-year variation from 2024 to 2025 indicates a decrease of approximately 5.4%, highlighting the continuing contraction in import volume. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the period from 2024 to 2028 is about -6.0%, emphasizing the ongoing gradual decrease in demand or reliance on imported gravure printing machinery.

Future trends to watch for:

• Technological advancements in printing machinery may influence domestic production capabilities, potentially reducing dependency on imports.
• Market shifts towards digital printing solutions could further impact the demand for imported gravure printing machinery.
• Economic factors, including changes in the global supply chain, might alter import volumes by affecting pricing and accessibility.
