The UK is forecasted to see a consistent increase in the import of plasters consisting of calcined gypsum or calcium sulfate from 2024 to 2028. The projected volumes grow from 621.09 million kilograms in 2024 to 721.39 million kilograms by 2028. This represents a steady year-on-year growth rate, reflecting a positive market trajectory. As we are in 2024, this rising trend suggests a robust demand assumption.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of environmental regulations on production and import volumes.
- Technological advancements in construction and building materials.
- Potential trade policy changes stemming from UK's evolving trade agreements post-Brexit.
