The European Limestone and Gypsum Domestic Material Consumption Share in 2024 sees Spain at the forefront with 19.28 thousand metric tons. Following Spain are Romania at 14.2 and the United Kingdom at 11.84. Germany and Poland also show significant consumption at 11.18 and 9.01, respectively. Italy, while still notable, is lower at 6.01. Other countries like Austria (4.09), Ireland (3.0), and Portugal (2.49) have moderate consumption figures, while smaller markets such as Iceland (0.00042) show minimal consumption.

Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in leading consumption due to economic developments and industrial changes. Emerging markets like Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, which experienced 7.62% and 13.24% growth respectively, may continue to grow. Conversely, established markets like Ireland and the Netherlands could face declines. Monitoring these trends will be critical for understanding the evolving landscape of limestone and gypsum consumption in Europe.
