Glass and glassware exported by all countries totaled US$90.1 billion in 2025.

That dollar amount results from a flatlining 0.3% gain for all product shippers over the five-year period starting in 2021 when shipments of glass-related commodities were worth $89.9 billion.

Year over year, the value of exported glass and glassware grew by 0.5% compared to $89.7 billion during 2024.

Made principally from silica, glass is a hardened material that is typically transparent but can also be produced in many different colors and textures. Glass-related products include architectural glass, mirrors, stained glass windows, glass tiles, eyeglasses as well as many household items such as bottles, jars and pitchers.

The 5 biggest glass exporters are mainland China, Germany, United States of America, France and Poland. Collectively, that quintet of major exporters generated almost half (49.7%) of overall international sales for glass as a material plus glassware products during 2025.

Among continents, suppliers in Asia sold the highest dollar worth of exported glass and glassware during 2025 with shipments valued at $42.3 billion or 47% of the overall total. In second place were exporters located in Europe at 40.8% while another 9.7% of worldwide glass and glassware sales were racked up by suppliers in North America.

Smaller percentages came from Africa (1.3%), Latin America (1%) excluding Mexico but including the Caribbean, then Oceania (0.1%) led by Australia and New Zealand.

Main Types of Glass Exports

For research purposes, the 2-digit Harmonized Tariff System code prefix is 70 for glass and glassware. There are many subcategories, but the major types are:

Glass containers including bottles, jars, pots, bottles (18.8% of the overall total)
Glass fibers, glass wool and related articles (18.6%)
Tempered and laminated safety glass (17.2%)
Tableware, kitchenware, bathroom items, indoor glass decorations (14.1%)
Glass mirrors (11.2%)
Float glass, surface ground or polished glass (7.6%)
Miscellaneous glass items (5.5%)
Glass beads, imitation pearls or precious stones (2.8%)
Laboratory or pharmaceutical glassware (1.8%)
Press or moulded glass paying blocks, tiles (1.4%)
Glass waste, cullet (0.8%)
Glass bulbs, tubes (0.1%)

The above subcategories represent 87% of export sales for glass and glassware in 2025.

Below are the 15 countries that exported the highest dollar value worth of glass and glassware during 2025.

mainland China: US$24.2 billion (26.8% of exported glass/glassware)
Germany: $7.9 billion (8.8%)
United States: $5.8 billion (6.5%)
France: $3.6 billion (4%)
Poland: $3.3 billion (3.7%)
Japan: $3.2 billion (3.6%)

South Korea: $1.97 billion (2.2%)
Spain: $1.9 billion (2.1%)
Vietnam: $1.63 billion (1.8%)
Taiwan: $1.62 billion (1.8%)

By value, the listed 15 countries sold nearly three-quarters (74.9%) of global glass and glassware exported in 2025.

Among the top exporters, the fastest-growing glass/glassware exporters since 2024 were: Vietnam (up 36.6%), Malaysia (up 26%), Japan (up 13.1%) and Spain (up 8.2%).

Those countries that posted declines in their exported glass/glassware sales were: mainland China (down -5.4%), United States (down -4.2%), South Korea (down -3.6%), Mexico (down -1.7%) and Belgium (down -0.3%).

In the automated database below, the 100 key nations that export glass and glassware account for 99.92% of related exports by value during 2025.

Focusing our analysis on the 100 biggest exporters of glass and items made from glass, the fastest growers were Bhutan (up 6,667% from 2024), Laos (up 1,846%), Israel (up 385.3%), Myanmar (up 383.2%) and North Macedonia (up 142.5%).

Leading the year-over-year decliners were Belarus (down ¬-82.3% from 2024), Lebanon (down -74.9%), Qatar (down -71.2%), Angola (down -64.7%), Oman (down -55.8%) then Kuwait (down -55%).

You can change the presentation order by clicking the triangle icon at the top of the columns above. An entry of 0% in the right-most column means that no 2024 data was available.

Countries Earning Greatest Surpluses from Global Glass Trade

The following countries posted the highest positive net exports for glass and glassware during 2025. Investopedia defines net exports as the value of a country’s total exports minus the value of its total imports. Thus, the statistics below present the surplus between the value of each country’s exported glass and glassware and its import purchases for that same commodity.

mainland China: US$17.6 billion (net export surplus down -7.6% since 2024)
Germany: $1.7 billion (down -7.8%)
Poland: $1.34 billion (up 8.5%)
Malaysia: $1.26 billion (up 43.6%)
Japan: $1.17 billion (up 37.4%)
Czech Republic: $1.12 billion (up 5%)
Egypt: $465.2 million (up 8.8%)
Bulgaria: $452.7 million (down -3.7%)
Belgium: $305.8 million (up 8.5%)
Mexico: $227.4 million (up 107.4%)
Hong Kong: $180.7 million (down -57.4%)
Vietnam: $163.1 million (down -139%)
Türkiye: $140.4 million (down -38.7%)
Portugal: $120.8 million (up 67.6%)
Luxembourg: $115.4 million (up 61.3%)

Mainland China generated the strongest surplus in the international trade of glass and glassware. In turn, this positive cashflow confirms China’s strong competitive advantage for this specific product group.

Countries Causing Largest Deficits from Global Glass Trade

The following countries posted the highest negative net exports for glass and glassware during 2025. Investopedia defines net exports as the value of a country’s total exports minus the value of its total imports. Thus, the statistics below present the deficit between the value of each country’s imported glass and glassware purchases and its exports for that same commodity.

United States: -US$3.5 billion (net export deficit down -5.9% since 2024)
Canada: -$2 billion (up 7.1%)
India: -$1.7 billion (up 87.2%)
United Kingdom: -$1.4 billion (down -5.5%)
United Arab Emirates: -$961.6 million (up 96.7%)
Australia: -$922.6 million (up 20.8%)
Spain: -$775.2 million (up 24.3%)
France: -$691.3 million (down -15.7%)
Switzerland: -$686 million (up 5.6%)
South Korea: -$680.6 million (up 22.3%)
Singapore: -$655.2 million (up 6.3%)
Brazil: -$572.9 million (down -3.5%)
Netherlands: -$469.5 million (down -3.7%)
Saudi Arabia: -$457.8 million (down -33.2%)
Greece: -$432.3 million (up 12%)

The United States of America incurred the highest deficit in the international trade of glass and glassware. In turn, this negative cashflow highlights America’s competitive disadvantage for this specific product category but also signals opportunities for glass and glassware-supplying countries that help satisfy the powerful demand.
