In 2023, Germany led the European export market for tubes, pipes, and hoses of vulcanized rubber, accounting for 17.91% of total exports by weight. Italy and Czechia followed, with shares of 14.92% and 14.49%, respectively. Poland and the Netherlands showed significant growth in their export share, with the Netherlands marking a noteworthy 20.16% increase from the previous year. Smaller markets like Malta and Cyprus experienced remarkable growth, indicating potential emerging markets. Countries like Belgium and France saw a decline in their export shares, with year-on-year decreases of 5.31% and 4.68%, respectively.
Looking ahead, the trend suggests that while established markets like Germany and Italy may face slight declines, opportunities exist for smaller exporters in the sector. Notably, Eastern European countries and smaller markets such as Cyprus and Malta are poised for robust growth. Sustainability and eco-friendly manufacturing are likely to become crucial factors influencing demand, suggesting that countries investing in these areas could capture larger market shares.
