Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for flexible plastic tubes and hoses in Bosnia and Herzegovina, measured in tonnes, experienced notable shifts between 2021 and 2024. After reaching 3 145 t in 2021, it contracted to 2 625 t in 2022, primarily due to a combination of lower imports and higher exports. The market recovered to 3 045 t in 2023 and further to 3 133 t in 2024, as imports rose and export growth moderated, despite a decline in domestic production in the final year.

In value terms, the market displayed more pronounced volatility. The market size dropped sharply from 8 929 thousand US dollars in 2021 to 5 691 thousand in 2022, then stabilized at around 5 604 thousand in 2023 before rebounding to 7 412 thousand in 2024. This pattern suggests changes in average prices or a shift in the product mix, as the physical volume did not decline as steeply in 2022 and grew in the following years.

Over the broader period from 2018 to 2025, Bosnia and Herzegovina's trade in flexible plastic tubes and hoses showed significant transformation. Imports grew steadily from 2 715 t in 2018 to 3 934 t in 2021, then fluctuated between 3 442 t and 3 889 t. Exports expanded remarkably, from just 336 t in 2018 to 1 907 t in 2025, indicating the country's growing role as a supplier in the regional market.
