Based on information obtained from its member companies and national associations, FEP – the European Federation of the Parquet Industry - estimates that the overall consumption figures of the European Parquet Industry for the year 2018 have moderately contracted by a bit less than 2%. This percentage should be seen as a preliminary forecast and is a result of best estimates discussed with member country representatives at the recent FEP Board meeting held at the BAU fair in Munich. FEP wishes to stress that this is a first prognosis subject to variations, in anticipation of the complete data to be communicated at FEP’s annual General Assembly mid-June in Lisbon, Portugal.
