The past year

The year started with very high demand from all customer segments. The order backlog increased by 50% in spring compared with the previous year. To make deliveries in accordance with our customers’ expectations, we hired staff and also recruited young people to do summer jobs. The shortage of materials that started to affect operations during the spring escalated during the autumn, and the prices of steel and other metal products also increased significantly. The company’s customers also experienced disruption caused by material and component shortages, and some of them were forced to reduce their rate of production and even introduce shutdown days in their production. Demand did, however, remain stable even into the last quarter of the calendar year 2021. The steep increases in material prices have been passed on to customers through price increases. There have been several rounds of price increases all the way to the end of this financial year. There was a drop in demand during the last quarter of the financial year. Here too, it is the shortage of materials that resulted in a fall in demand, a shortage that has been further exacerbated by the war in Ukraine. Much of the focus was on supplying existing customers with goods; business with existing customers increased in volume during the year, but some completely new customers were been added.
