European aerosol production holds its own in 2015… European aerosol production figures were recently released by the European Aerosol Federation (FEA). Aerosol units produced in Europe totaled 5.651 billion in 2015, virtually even with the 5.652 billion produced in 2014. Personal care products accounted for 55.76% of production, while Household Care accounted for 21.76%. The UK led production with 27.15%, followed closely by Germany (23.45%), France (13.2%), Italy (9.72%), Russia (6.65%) and The Netherlands (6.45%). The remaining European countries surveyed accounted for 13.38%. Steel cans accounted for almost 2.296 billion of European aerosol fillings, while aluminum accounted for almost 2.748 billion, for a total of almost 5.044 billion. According to the FEA, the 600 million gap between total aerosols filled and steel/aluminum cans filled is due to several countries not reporting on the types of metal cans used in production.
