The import of non-refractory ceramic building bricks to Germany is forecasted to decline over the next five years, starting from 34.937 million kilograms in 2024 to 31.653 million kilograms in 2028. Compared to 2023, where imports stood at approximately the same levels as 2024, this represents a steady reduction in volume.
The year-on-year decrease reflects a decaying trend, with the import volume decreasing progressively each year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period indicates a consistent negative trend, highlighting a shrinking demand or increased local production efficiency in Germany.
Future trends to watch include changes in construction industry standards, shifts in local building material production, and policies affecting import tariffs or incentives related to sustainable materials, which could influence the demand for ceramic building bricks.
