In 2020, the transportation sector and the chemical and power sector represented the two downstream applications with the largest share of total fluoropolymer sales in Europe, with 15.5 thousand metric tons and 11 thousand metric ton respectively. Between 2015 and 2020, most end use sectors of fluoropolymers remained stable or experienced a decrease in sales volumes, with medical applications and textiles and architecture seeing the most significant drops.

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.
