In 2023, Spain dominated the European export of prepared pigments for ceramics, enamelling, and glass, accounting for nearly half of the total share, yet experienced a slight decline of 1.14% from the previous year. Italy followed with a substantial increase of 15.25%. Portugal marked the highest growth rate of 95.47%, albeit from a smaller base. The Netherlands showed marginal growth, while significant percentage increases were observed in countries with smaller shares, like Greece, Finland, and Estonia. Conversely, Poland, Bulgaria, and Slovenia experienced notable declines in their export shares.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts in market dynamics due to changing production and consumption patterns, environmental regulations, and technological advancements in pigment preparation. Additionally, countries with minor shares but significant growth rates, such as Finland and Estonia, may increasingly contribute to the market landscape. Tracking these changes will be crucial for stakeholders aiming to understand and predict market movements.
