The global export of polymers of styrene, excluding SAN or ABS, shows South Korea leading with 17.56% market share. The United States and Belgium follow, highlighting their prominence in this sector. Strong growth exists in countries like Kuwait (37.77%) and Chile (28.49%), while traditional markets like Germany and the UK observe declines of -8.44% and -8.13% respectively. Meanwhile, the Czech Republic, Spain, and the UK have shown negative trends.
