The latest study by Interconnection Consulting reveals that the market for sun protection (roller shutters and venetian blinds) in the five biggest countries of Europe saw positive development in 2006. Sales in Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Britain grew by 7.7 per cent, though the volume increase came to no more than 4.5 per cent. However, the market researchers in Vienna are forecasting that rates of growth like these will no longer be sustainable in the next few years.
