Consumer appliances continues good performance in 2011
In spite of the euro crisis the consumer appliances market still performed healthily in Germany, showing an increase in both volume and value sales in 2011. The near zero inflation, healthy growth in the German economy, and falling unemployment rates all contributed to stronger consumer confidence which boosted their purchase of big-ticket items, including various consumer appliances. In major appliances, the best performance was seen in home laundry products, while large kitchen and refrigeration appliances showed somewhat restrained growth due to saturation.

Design and technological innovations drive growth
For products where the penetration rate is already high, manufacturers are trying to encourage consumers to replace their older appliances by coming up with new features. In particular for major appliances, energy-efficiency is a key purchase driver for the replacement of old appliances, but this feature alone is no longer sufficient to lure consumers. Manufacturers have had to offer improved functionality incorporating modern technology and trendy designs. The bigger manufacturers have an edge over smaller companies in consumer appliances, as they have the budget to continue investing in research and development in order to come up with innovative product launches.
