In 2024, France`s import shipments of polyethylene (PE) foams continued to be sourced predominantly from Italy, Belgium, Germany, Spain, and the Netherlands. Despite the negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of -0.9% from 2020 to 2024 and a decline in growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -8.95%, the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates low market concentration. This suggests a diverse and competitive market landscape for PE foam imports in France, with multiple countries contributing to the supply chain.
