Estonia saw the highest growth among smaller economies with a 27.01% increase. Conversely, the Netherlands, UK, and Portugal saw declining exports. Ireland marked the most notable growth of 45.37%, but from a minimal base, alongside significant gains in Greece and Latvia.

Additionally, economic policies affecting manufacturing in these countries, alongside demand trends in emerging markets, will be pivotal. Renewable materials and sustainable practices will also shape future prospects, as Europe fortifies its position in global markets.
