In 2023, Germany led the European export of Trichloroethylene and Tetrachloroethylene with 86.371 million kilograms, although it experienced a 5.11% decline year-on-year. France and Belgium followed with 21.534 and 12.184 million kilograms, respectively, where Belgium showed a slight increase of 0.22%. The Netherlands and the United Kingdom saw significant declines, decreasing by 27.4% and 8.05%. Notably, Austria, Lithuania, and Portugal displayed substantial growth in their export volumes, with Austria increasing by 45.34% and Lithuania by 28.71%. Spain recorded a major decrease of 29.69%, indicating shifting market dynamics among smaller exporters.
Future trends to watch in the European export of these chemicals include:
- Possible recovery or further decline in Germany's export volumes based on industrial demand and environmental regulations.
- Assessing the sustainability of Austria and Lithuania's growth given their smaller initial volumes.
- The need for diversification among countries that experienced a downturn, especially the Netherlands and Spain.
- Monitoring regulatory changes in key markets that could impact export volumes.
