Spain is the fifth largest chemical industry country in Europe. The chemical industry accounts for 9% of Spain's total industrial output and employs 500,000 people, making it one of the prominent industries in the Spanish economy. The prospect of chemical products applied to other industries is very optimistic, and the demand for chemical products in various industries is increasing. In some basic industries such as construction and automobile, chemical products are replacing some traditional materials. For example, most automotive parts use chemical synthetics (from tires to airbags, from textile fibers to a large number of plastics) to reduce weight and increase strength and safety. This is also the case in the communications, information and aerospace sectors. The pharmaceutical industry in the chemical industry also has good prospects for growth, and in 2010, its annual growth rate can be maintained at 6 percent. The main exports of the Western chemical industry are: pharmaceutical products, 23%; organic chemical products, 17.3%; plastic and rubber products, 17.3%. The main import products are: pharmaceutical products, 27.6%; organic chemical products, 20.1%; plastic and rubber products, 14.6%. EU countries are the main markets for their imports and exports
