Outlook





Business environment in 2026

Persistently high level of macroeconomic and global political uncertainty

Automotive

  • Solid project pipeline, but timing of contract awards difficult to predict

  • No dependence from current production volumes

Industrial Automation

  • Good prospects in medtech and consumer goods

  • Subdued demand from the automotive sector

Woodworking

  • No signals yet for a real furniture market recovery

  • Good prospects in the timber house business
