Key Features:
The European mattress market remains one of the largest worldwide, accounting for around 15% of global consumption. At retail prices, the market is estimated at nearly EUR 14 billion, now above pre-pandemic levels. Against a backdrop of persistent uncertainty, Europe is expected to remain a strategically important region in the medium term, both as a large and relatively stable market and as a key destination for diversified export flows, attracting interest from both European manufacturers and foreign players seeking to rebalance their international sales exposure.
The import of mattresses from Extra-European countries into the EU market has traditionally remained very limited. Although the market continues to be largely supplied by European production, the situation has been changing in recent years. Among leading markets, Germany and the UK show the highest import penetration from extra-EU suppliers. By contrast, France, Italy and Spain display much lower extra-EU import penetration (generally below 5%), pointing to a more protected and structurally integrated competitive environment.
