KWD Market + Charts Europe 2013 Information and page samples The Author Author of this yearly updated KWD Report Heating & Plumbing Pipes Europe 2013 is the chief-editor of KWD-SHK and KWD-globalpipe, newsletters which inform on a weekly basis about the products, markets, companies and applications for pipes and fittings in hot & cold water and heating installations. Dipl.-Ing. Jutta Hix (née Hamich) has studied plastic engineering in Darmstadt, Germany, followed by 15 years working in Marketing and Sales departments. In 2005, she joined her father s publishing house, which had been founded in 1974, and in 2009, after her father Winfried Hamich had died, she took over the family managed publishing house. An Introduction to 2013 Report Update KWD s Market + Charts Heating & Plumbing Pipes Europe market report is revised on an annual basis. It is the purpose of this report to provide a comprehensive reference book for all important information for this particular market segment. In the 2013 report at hand, we provide market estimates broken down by country for the use of indoor pipes. More specifically, the report contains data of the actual pipe quantities per country for under floor heating/surface heating and cooling (FH), radiator connections (RA) and sanitary pipes (SA). For our forecasts for the use of pipe materials in the coming years, numerous economic trends and building construction forecasts are interpreted. To find everything, that has to do with a country together, we have assembled this year all the economic and construction information and the heating & plumbing market news together with the consumption of pipes by countries. The conversion into tons of pipe material und fittings will not be any more in the printed version. But it is still available in the pdf-version. So pipes in million meters cannot be mixed up with pipes in tons or fittings. Published in December 2013 KWD-globalpipe 2013 www.kwd-globalpipe.de page 2
