In Germany, the steady growth path recorded in recent years continued, thanks among other things to strong demand for bathroom furniture (+2.6 %). The outstanding revenue growth in China (+52.7 %) was driven by rising sales in all product segments. In the Gulf states, revenue increased by 46.1 % on the back of project business with hotels and restaurants. Significant revenue growth was also generated in Norway (+13.3 %) and Finland (+12.0 %). By contrast, revenue declined in France (-5.6 %) and the United Kingdom (-8.4 %). The latter was attributable to exchange rate effects, with revenue increasing by 0.9 % on a constant currency basis.
