Portugal continues to rely on key suppliers such as Spain, Germany, and China for its barium sulfate imports in 2024, with Italy and the Netherlands also playing significant roles. Despite the slight growth in CAGR (0.22%) from 2020 to 2024, there was a notable decline in the growth rate (-10.32%) from 2023 to 2024. The High Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a market with very high concentration, suggesting a competitive landscape dominated by a few major players. Monitoring shifts in import trends and supplier diversity could be crucial for market participants in the coming years.
By 2027, the Barium Sulfate market in Portugal is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 0.94%, 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.
