Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for mastics, fillers and surfacing preparations in Bosnia and Herzegovina contracted significantly in physical terms from 65 915 т in 2021 to 22 056 т in 2024, representing a cumulative decline of approximately 67% over three years.

In value terms, the market decline was less pronounced, falling from 35 896 тыс. $ in 2021 to 32 563 тыс. $ in 2024. This coincided with a steady rise in exports, which more than doubled from 37 109 т in 2022 to 66 984 т in 2024, redirecting a growing share of supply away from domestic consumption.

Local production remained relatively small, peaking at 1 615 т in 2022 before falling to 651 т in 2024. Imports, the primary source of supply, fluctuated between 83 678 т and 96 392 т during the period, indicating the shrinking domestic market was driven by expanded export activity rather than a sharp reduction in available product.
