In 2023, Belgium dominated the European export of polypropylene in primary forms, leading with 25.66% of share by weight, followed by France and Italy. While countries like Germany and Spain saw a slight decline, others such as Poland and Bulgaria experienced significant growth. Notably, Malta showed extraordinary growth, albeit from a smaller base, as indicated by a 209.43% increase. Denmark's exports have ceased, marking a 100% drop, reflecting regional production and logistics shifts.
Future trends to watch in 2024 include continued increases in areas with burgeoning industrial sectors, such as Ireland and Croatia, due to recent infrastructure investments. The recent downturn of exports in countries like Denmark may signal supply chain readjustments, potentially altering the European polypropylene landscape in the coming years.
