Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2025, imports of plastic sanitary ware into Bosnia and Herzegovina showed a clear upward trend, increasing in value from $11.5 million to $17.6 million. This growth was interrupted only by a temporary dip in 2020. Over the same period, exports fluctuated, rising to a peak of $10.1 million in 2022 before falling back to $8.5 million by 2025.

From 2021 to 2024, domestic production of plastic sanitary ware contracted significantly, dropping from $7.9 million to $5.3 million. In contrast, the total market size grew by 16%, reaching $12.7 million in 2024. This expansion occurred despite the decline in local output, pointing to a market increasingly supplied by imports.

By the end of 2024, the market's structure had shifted, with imports covering a larger portion of domestic consumption. The consistent rise in import value supported overall market growth even as production volumes fell.
