Portugal`s propylene glycol import market in 2024 continued to be dominated by key suppliers such as Spain, Belgium, Germany, Metropolitan France, and the Netherlands. The high Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a concentrated market structure. Despite a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -3.82% from 2020 to 2024, the growth rate in 2024 saw a significant decline of -15.71%. This suggests a challenging environment for propylene glycol imports into Portugal, possibly influenced by various factors such as market saturation or changing consumer preferences.
By 2027, the Propylene Glycol market in Portugal is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 2.02%, 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.
