The Domestic Material Consumption of Non-Metallic Minerals in Germany is projected to experience a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing from 551.7 million metric tons in 2024 to 544.78 million metric tons in 2028. This reflects a consistent downward trend with the year-on-year change indicating a modest reduction in consumption. As of 2023, the consumption stood slightly higher, cementing a steady decline in the subsequent years.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential impact of sustainable construction practices and increased recycling rates, which may further decrease demand for raw materials.
Technological advancements in material efficiency and shifts in economic activities influencing mineral demand.
Regulatory changes promoting environmental conservation that might encourage reduced consumption of non-metallic minerals.
