EFF Annual Report – Europe’s Key Players
Available for download here The 2024 annual report of the European Foundry Federation (EFF) provides a comprehensive overview of the European foundry industry in a particularly challenging economic context. The year 2024 was marked by a widespread slowdown in industrial activity across Europe, affecting both ferrous and non-ferrous foundries. Total foundry production declined significantly due to a drop in demand from key customer sectors – automotive, construction, mechanical engineering, and industrial equipment – combined with high energy costs, increased regulatory pressure, and stronger international competition. Ferrous foundries were the most affected, while the non-ferrous segment showed greater resilience, although it too experienced a decline. The report also highlights the social and structural consequences of this situation: workforce reductions, site closures, and ongoing investment pressures. Despite these challenges, the foundry industry remains a strategic link in European industrial value chains, essential for the energy transition, infrastructure, mobility, and industrial sovereignty. Through this directory and statistical analysis, the EFF reaffirms its role as a reference for sector knowledge and its commitment to a competitive, resilient, and sustainable European foundry industry.
