Europe: fluoropolymers sales value change by application

The downstream applications of flouropolymers characterized under renewable energy saw the greatest increase in the total value of fluoropolymer sales in Europe between 2015 and 2020 amongst the represented downstream applications. Despite the total quantity of fluoropolymer sales in Europe associated with renewable energy remaining unchanged in this period, the value associated with these sales increased by 300 percent from less than five million euros in 2015 to around 20 million euros in 2020.

Supplementary notes

The source notes that differences in how companies reported downstream user sectors of their products and additional companies participating in the current survey could distort the comparison between 2015 and 2020 data. The source also notes that the original survey results were extrapolated to the entire EU market in the 2016-2017 Fluoropolymer SEA study, while the current survey already covers a high share of the market and as such extrapolation was not considered to be necessary.
