In 2023, Gabon saw a shift in the market for Expanded PTFE (ePTFE) imports, with top exporters being France, Italy, China, Areas NES, and Malaysia. The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) moved from very high concentration to a more moderate level, indicating a potential increase in market competition. However, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) experienced a significant decline of -42.12%, with a growth rate plummeting to -84.21%. These changes suggest a challenging landscape for ePTFE import shipments in Gabon, necessitating a strategic approach for market players.
