Anfalum vaticina A fall of 10,1% in the turnover of the sector lighting in 2012
In a context of recession, with new descents of activity in affine sectors to the lighting as it is the one of the Construction, and with a forecast of fall in the general consumption of the Spaniards of 1,3%, the Spanish Association of Manufacturers of Lighting (Anfalum) foresees for this 2012 a descent in the turnover of 10,1%.
With this would break the line of stability that came keeping the sector from the year 2009 (1.425 million euros of turnover in 2009, 1.410 millions in 2010 and 1.358 millions in 2011) and would finish the exercise in near levels to the 1.220 million euros (in 2007 the turnover arrived to the 1.900 million euros).

Also it will finish in positive figures the segment of the lighted up technical interior, with a planned turnover of 448 million euros, in comparison with the 409 millions with which finalised the 2011. This is had to fundamentally to the good behaviour that are following the exports of this type of lighting and to the contributions of the new technologies LED, regulation and electronic.
