Exporting agricultural radiators to Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain

Germany is the largest European market for radiators, with €660 million in imports. While imports are increasing in strength in Germany, the UK and Spain, they are likely to stagnate or decline in France and Italy. Italy and the UK, however, are the nations most likely to import radiator parts from developing countries, as over one-tenth of their radiator imports already originate from there. The greatest opportunities in this market lie in aluminium radiators, while the copper/brass segment is declining. The best way of accessing the market would be through OEM/OES subcontracting or selling through pan-European or national wholesaler/importer networks.
