Although the reported parquet sales figures are not booming, the positive trend continues and activity seems to consolidate in most of Europe.<\/p>\n<p>A brief per country recap is provided in the table below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Market overview<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<table border=\"1\" frame=\"box\" rules=\"all\" cellpadding=\"3\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Austria<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The information provided to FEP points in the direction of an increase of the parquet sales by 3% in Austria, reflecting significant increases of investments in buildings.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2><strong>\u2191<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Belgia<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Belgian market progressed by an estimated 3% during the first semester of 2016 and is expected to keep this pace up to the end of the current year.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2><strong>\u2191<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Danemarca<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Growing building activities and projects in large cities are supporting a 3 to 5% improvement of the Danish market. This positive development is forecast to continue.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Finlanda<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The situation in Finland remains the most problematic among European countries. Projects are delayed and the market fell by 15% during the first semester while it is expected to decline by 10% for the whole year<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2193<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Fran\u021ba<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The first half of the year shows rather good results with an increase by 3% of the French sales although producers of solid wood parquet are not experiencing such positive developments. These trends should continue as there is no reason to expect a sudden turnaround.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Germania<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The German market grew with an estimated 3% in the first six months of the current year but is presently becoming more \"difficult\".<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Italy<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Parquet sales are recovering a bit in Italy by 1 to 2% but from a very low level. Despite increases in bank lending, people are still reluctant to invest. A positive vote on the referendum to support the actual government is necessary to prevent a new crisis.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Netherlands<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Dutch market upturned during the first semester of 2016 by an estimated 3%. This trend is forecast to continue for the rest of the year.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Norway<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Following significant difficulties, the Norwegian market seems to stabilise<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2192<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Poland<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The few information available point to an increase of the Polish market by 1 to 2%. Poland is suffering from the political instability, especially the non residential market.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Russia<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Board members consider that the market remains weak in Russia, where cheaper flooring solutions have more success than parquet.<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Spain<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Spanish situation is comparable to Italy. The market rose by 1 to 2% from a very low level and needs political stability to keep this pace.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Sweden<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The market increase which was rather substantial in 2015, shows signs of stabilisation around +5%.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Switzerland<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Swiss market is still reflecting the low housing activity connected to the legal limitation of vacation homes' construction. For the first semester of 2016, the parquet market fell by 5 % and is expected to decrease by 3% for the whole year. Nevertheless, no bad news is expected in the future and construction remains the only interesting investment<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2193<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>United Kingdom<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Board members agree that the UK market remains the most dynamic, especially the residential sector. Brexit has no local impact. The parquet sales rose by 3 to 4% during the first semester of 2016.<\/td>\n<td>\n<h2>\u2191<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"layout-container\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Board of Directors of the European Federation of the Parquet Industry met on 19 October 2016 and discussed among others both the parquet situation and recent economic indicators on the European market.
