Europe. Lighting fixtures trade balance, 2018-2023. EUR Million

After two years of extraordinary growth, the lighting fixtures market in Europe started slowing. In terms of segments, residential lighting performed better than professional lighting during the pandemic period, while the performance of the two segments reversed in the last two years.

The EU ban on the fluorescent lamps, the increased cost of electricity and the shift to Smart lighting represent the main evolution drivers. The expansion of Connected and Smart lighting technology is leading to a redefinition of the industry’s competitive landscape. The sector is experiencing a vertical integration process with large lighting groups acquiring connectivity companies to develop integrated products.

According to lighting companies, challenging market conditions will persist in 2024. Anyway, long-term outlook remains positive for the lighting business as the demand for energy-efficient lighting continued to expand.
