In 2023, the import volume of slag wool, rock wool, and similar mineral wools to France stood at approximately 166 million kilograms. The forecasted data from 2024 onwards shows a steady year-on-year increase. From 2023 to 2024, there is an expected increase of about 2.43%. Subsequent yearly increments suggest a consistent growth trend, with values reaching 182.76 million kilograms by 2028, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 1.9% from 2024 to 2028. This indicates a stable growth trajectory driven by increasing demand or policy enhancements favoring insulation materials.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Environmental regulations pushing for more sustainable building materials, which may further boost demand.
- Technological advancements in manufacturing processes making mineral wools more efficient and cost-effective.
- Potential shifts in construction industry dynamics influencing import volumes.
