In 2023, the Netherlands led in road freight transport of man-made fibers, nuclear fuel, chemicals, rubber, plastic, and chemical products, with an actual volume of 25.5 million metric tons. Poland followed with 11.48 million metric tons, while Slovakia experienced a growth of 3%. Norway maintained stability, seeing no change. Denmark saw slight growth, while Ireland's volume decreased significantly by 7.73%. Luxembourg had the highest growth at 8.02%. Smaller markets like Latvia, Luxembourg, and Estonia maintained low volumes. The Compound Annual Growth Rate over the last five years highlights stability in major markets but fluctuating trends in smaller regions.
Future trends show potential growth in Central and Eastern Europe, driven by increased industrial activities and cross-border collaboration. Sustainability concerns and regulatory changes may influence production and transportation strategies, potentially boosting eco-friendly transport solutions. Western European countries might experience stabilizing or slowing growth due to mature markets and shifts towards greener technologies.
