In 2023, Germany led European production of bituminous mixtures at 24.463 billion kg, representing a slight year-on-year decrease of 0.48%. The UK followed, showing modest growth, while Italy’s production increased by 2.4%. Spain and Norway experienced significant growth of 3.62% and 15.89% respectively. Sweden and Finland noted remarkable increases, with Finland up by 418.44%. Production in Poland dropped by 3.5%, whereas Hungary and Ireland observed growth by 6.0% and 12.01% respectively. Smaller markets like Greece and Portugal faced substantial declines. Over five years, compound annual growth trends vary greatly across countries.
Future trends to watch include continued innovation in sustainable production methods, potentially influencing growth in environmentally-conscious markets. Policy changes supporting infrastructure development, especially in Eastern European countries, may drive growth. Additionally, fluctuations in the supply of raw materials and energy costs can significantly impact production dynamics and overall output in the European region.
