In 2023, Italy led European production of open sections cold-formed or folded from non-alloy steel, followed by Germany and France. Despite Italy's leadership, it saw a reduction of 6.2% in production value, while Germany experienced minimal change. Poland, Sweden, and the Netherlands noted significant growth rates of 10.43%, 10.79%, and 13.73%, respectively. Slovakia faced a notable decline of 23.47%. Emerging markets like Estonia and Serbia saw strong expansions with 16.22% and 14.17% growth. Over the last five years, the average growth rate varied significantly across countries, with markets like the Netherlands showing robust increases.

Future trends in European production include a focus on sustainable manufacturing processes and the increasing application of advanced manufacturing technologies. Demand from the construction and automotive sectors will continue to drive production changes, with Eastern European countries potentially becoming larger players due to their growth trajectories and strategic investments.
