In 2023, Germany's import of pebbles, gravel, broken, and crushed stone for aggregate stood at $39.57 million USD. The forecast for 2024 at $39.38 million indicates a slight year-on-year decrease of 0.33%, with further declines anticipated over the next four years: 0.49% in 2025, 0.48% in 2026, 0.47% in 2027, and 0.47% in 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2023 to 2028 reflects a steady decrease of approximately 0.48% annually, indicating a gradual, consistent decline in import value.
Future trends to monitor include:
- Environmental regulations that may impact the construction industry and influence import demand.
- Domestic production capabilities that could reduce dependency on imports.
- Variations in infrastructure development initiatives that could affect aggregate material needs.
- Potential shifts in global market prices for these materials that could influence import costs and demand.
