In 2023, Congo import shipments of expanded PTFE (ePTFE) continued to be dominated by top exporters such as the Netherlands, China, France, United Arab Emirates, and Germany. With a high concentration level indicated by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), the market remained competitive. However, the industry experienced a significant decline with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of -20.32% and a growth rate of -58.42%. This suggests a challenging landscape for ePTFE imports into Congo, highlighting the need for strategic planning and adaptation in the coming years.
