Statistics

Reliable, neutral market data is essential for sound business decisions.

Access to all statistical data is strictly limited to member companies and handled with full
confidentiality and in complete compliance with EU competition law.

Business Barometers

A business barometer provides regular insights into the health and dynamics of an industry. It gathers data on sales, orders, workforce developments, and market expectations to offer a clear picture of current business conditions and support forecasting and strategic decision‑making.

The EUnited Cleaning Business Barometer delivers exclusive, timely insights based on reliable data submitted directly by participating member companies. It tracks economic trends across the professional cleaning machines market, covering key product groups defined by the EUnited Cleaning Statistics Committee.

Surveys collect information on:

  • Current business situation
  • Order intake and turnover (recent trends, expectations, strategic plans)
  • Workforce developments

Only contributing members receive the results. Additional analyses for specific product groups or market segments are conducted depending on participation and relevance.
