Wooden furniture production in European Union countries decreased by 4% within 2012 year in comparison with the previous. Overall consumption is estimated to have fallen 4% in 2012 from euro 43.35 billion to euro 41.75 billion. The Eurostat furniture production index suggests that the downward trend in EU production has continued into 2013.
However, the rate of decline has slowed due to stabilization in German and French production, a strong rebound in Polish production and signs of improvement in the UK. Production has continued to slide in Italy and Spain this year
