Croatia import shipments of alginate in 2024 show a notable increase in concentration among top exporting countries, with Austria, Italy, Germany, and Norway leading the way. China, which was a significant player in 2023, is now excluded from the top list. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) in 2023 further intensified in 2024, indicating a more concentrated market. The impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 36.7% from 2020 to 2024, coupled with a remarkable growth rate of 39.89% from 2023 to 2024, underscores the robust expansion and competitive dynamics within Croatia alginate import sector.
By 2027, the Alginate market in Croatia is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 0.40%, as part of an increasingly competitive Europe region, where Germany remains at the forefront, supported by United Kingdom, France, Italy and Russia, driving innovations and market adoption across sectors.
