After researching the UK quarried building products market development and taking into account various other factors the following conclusions can be drawn from MBD's report:

Market Review 2000-2004:

The UK quarried building products market in volume terms is believed to have fluctuated moderately during the five year review period up to 2004, although overall growth of volume sales is estimated to have been achieved by UK quarry operators. In 2004, sales are estimated to have reached almost 165.6 million tonnes, representing growth of 3% in the year and of 7% compared with 2000. The moderate development during recent years suggests a certain level of maturity in the market and also shows the effects of the aggregates levy.

The UK market for quarried building products is anticipated to demonstrate growth in real terms throughout the forecast period, reflecting continued growth in the civil engineering sector and buoyancy in the construction market. Annual growth levels are anticipated to fluctuate between 3% and 6% in real terms. Overall, UK demand for quarried building products is anticipated to increase by 28% in real terms between 2004 and 2009.
