Over the past five years, declining demand from metallurgical industries and other key markets amid the COVID-19 pandemic and heightened competition brought difficulties to the Lime Manufacturing industry. While the expansion of the environmental market tempered losses for lime manufacturers, falling production volumes from the pandemic brought revenue losses in 2020. Recovering production helped fuel recovery for manufacturers, but lingering challenges are bringing another dip in revenue in 2023. Industry-wide revenue has been sinking at a CAGR of 0.8% over the past five years and is expected to total $2.8 billion in 2023, when revenue will likely fall an estimated 4.7%.In the limelight: Recovery in the metallurgical industries amid a depreciating dollar will likely elevate demand from the industry's largest market
