In 2023, Germany led the European import of glass fibre filaments with 20.26% of the total volume in kilograms, followed by Spain (10.51%) and Belgium (10.37%). Notably, the Netherlands showed the largest year-on-year growth at 21.61%, while Sweden and Greece also experienced strong increases at 14.87% and 22.02%, respectively. In contrast, Lithuania, Slovenia, and Bulgaria saw declines in their import shares.
Looking ahead, potential trends to monitor include continued growth in the Netherlands, driven by industrial demand, and a resurgence in markets with recent declines like Lithuania and Slovenia. Sustainability and innovative applications in composite materials may further influence future import patterns.
