In 2023, Belgium led European production of mixtures of ammonium nitrate with calcium carbonate not exceeding 28% nitrogen by weight, maintaining a stable output alongside Spain and the United Kingdom. Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, and Lithuania experienced declines, with Hungary and Lithuania seeing contractions of about 4.8% and 4.6%, respectively. France had a slight drop of 0.7%, while Croatia saw the most significant decrease at 28.8%.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential stabilization or recovery in Poland and Hungary, which have seen consistent year-on-year decreases.
- Emergent technologies targeting efficiency and environmental regulations might drive changes in production methods.
- Geopolitical factors, possibly impacting raw material access, could affect production and distribution channels.
