Structural products market in France: size, suppliers and public contracts

Market size and key facts

In 2025, public buyers in France awarded 173 supply contracts for structural products through award notices on TED; the 82 of them that state a value (47.4%) add up to €44.8 million, a floor rather than the full contract value. France imported €4.08 billion of goods in the customs headings matched to structural products in 2025 (Eurostat Comext, HS 7308, 4418, 7610 and 9406; all buyers, not only public ones), down 5.4% from 2023.

  • Since November 2023, 271 companies have won 515 public supply contracts for structural products in France, in 366 award notices from 300 public buyers.
  • 98.4% of these awards went to companies registered in France; the most frequent foreign origin is Italy.
  • The five companies that win most often hold 21.7% of all awards.
  • 23.5% of the awards whose notice states the number of tenders received a single bid.

In proportion

All public purchasing in France — general government spending on goods, services and investment, the measure the OECD and the European Commission use for public procurement — came to €486 billion in 2025, 16.2% of GDP (Eurostat). Award notices on TED cover only the contracts above the EU thresholds, so they show who wins, not the whole of that spending.
