Tap & Valve Manufacturing in Germany Industry Data and Analysis
The industry was hit hard by the effects of the pandemic. In 2020, many downstream industries reduced their production to respond to the drop in consumer demand caused by the pandemic. The lower production volume also reduced the demand for industrial valves, as machines were used less and therefore wore out less frequently. However, this effect was offset by the increased demand for building fittings. Many consumers invested more in modernising their homes during the lockdowns. Building construction also remained largely stable. Over the last five years, the industry has recorded average annual sales growth of 1.1%, which was primarily driven by the recovery following the pandemic-related slump. By contrast, a decline of 0.4% to 13.2 billion euros is expected for 2025 due to weak domestic demand in the manufacturing sector.
