In 2023, Italy dominated the European exports of button blanks, button moulds, and other parts of buttons, boasting a significant share with 1.8524 million kilograms. Norway was a close competitor, with substantial year-on-year growth of 42.98%. However, some countries faced declines, such as Hungary and Romania, which saw decreases of -5.7% and -20.15% respectively. Finland showcased a striking 54.51% growth, indicating potential market shifts. Smaller players like Croatia and Ireland showed minimal presence.
For 2024 and beyond, watch for:
- Emerging Eastern European countries increasing their market share.
