March 31, 1985 FIN – An in depth study of the European Economic Community Industrial Fastener Market is now being offered by New York-based market research group Frost & Sullivan Inc.
According to the study, total demand for industrial fasteners in the EEC is now around 1.6 million metric tons in volume with a value of around U.S.$2.9 billion. Total market demand is forecast to raise (in constant dollars) to about #3.1 billion through 1989.
The 277-page report (#E741/P) is comprised of 11 sections. Section I is the Executive Summary which defines the objectives and scope of the report. Section II reviews technology and technological developments for all products groups: bolts, nuts, screws, pins, studs, cotters, rivets, etc., and new methods of manufacture. Section III through IX covers individual national markets within the EEC (West Germany, U.K., France, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium/Luxembourg, and Denmark/Eire/Greece).
Company profiles of fastener suppliers and products ranges are provided for each of these countries.
Section X profiles in-depth the 10 largest fastener suppliers in the EEC (three in West Germany, three in the U.K., two in France, and two in Italy).
Section XI summarizes the total demand market for the EEC and considers cross-EEC trade links and discusses future trends. The appendix provides a reference list of over 270 fastener manufacturers and distributors in the EEC with names and address.
The study is similar in content and format to the U.S. Industrial Fastener Market study (#A1176) which Frost & Sullivan published back in 1983.
A single copy of the study is $1,850, which by our calculation works out to almost $8 per page. ©1985/2009 Fastener Industry News
