European Market Statistics

The rock duster market in the European region is anticipated to hold a share of 27% during the forecast timeframe. Europe is expected to emerge as the world's fastest-growing rock duster primarily driven by demand for safety equipment in the mining sector. The demand for rock dusters has increased as they are an essential security measure to prevent coal dust explosions due to the increasing emphasis on safety in mining operations. In comparison to last year, coal consumption in the EU increased by 2% and amounted to 6.48 exajoules in 2022, up from 6.34 exajoules. Increasing energy consumption has given rise to mining activities and, consequently, the demand for a rock duster is expected to grow to achieve optimal operation and safety.
