The challenges faced by the South Korean construction industry in 2023, such as a decline in construction deals and industry slowdown, can have an indirect negative impact on the greases market. According to the Construction & Economy Research Institute of Korea and the Construction Association of Korea, the construction industry was valued at USD 166 billion in 2023, witnessing a decline of 6.7% compared to 2022.
