The upturn forecast for 2013 failed to materialise, but the company said it was satisfied with its results. For 2014, the company reported that it expects moderate growth in orders and sales similar to 2012 and 2013.

Studer predicted improved investment behaviour for this year, particularly in Europe and Asia. Managing Director Fred Gaegauf said: “Although there are a vast quantity of projects in these markets, not very many have actually been given the go-ahead! There is a real investment backlog.”
