The import forecast of hydraulic cements, except Portland or aluminous, to Brazil indicates a gradual increase from 2024 onwards, with projected growth each year up to 2028. In 2023, the import value stood at an actual level, allowing us to observe the anticipated upward trend starting in 2024.
Year-on-year growth percentages reflect a steady positive trajectory, underscoring an expanding demand or possibly rising prices in Brazil for this category of cements.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Global supply chain impacts on cement availability and costs.
- Demand shifts driven by Brazil's construction and infrastructure sector needs.
- Environmental regulations possibly affecting the importation and usage of hydraulic cements.
