Earlier Report Observations

The Lithuanian market for asphalt and bitumen articles was supported in 2018 by state-led road maintenance and development initiatives, as well as industrial placement policies focusing on infrastructure and raw material availability. Market volume dipped in 2019 but recovered in 2020.

A period of strong growth followed in 2021 and 2022. Technological advancements and increasing environmental awareness, including the adoption of electric trucks in the transport sector, boosted construction activity. Furthermore, stricter quality and evenness requirements for road surfaces, mandated by the state road directorate, drove demand for higher-grade materials and roadworks.

In 2023, geopolitical shocks from the war in Ukraine disrupted supply chains for critical raw materials like catalyst metals and created financial uncertainty, leading to a temporary market contraction. By 2024, the market had recovered, with volume reaching 22,6 млн долл.
