Frame and sheet demountable partitioning systems represented 38 percent of the total demountable system market, although glass systems recorded the highest rates of growth during the review period to account for 29 percent of the market in 2001 ·

MSI believe that the UK market for monobloc systems increased by 15 percent between 1997 to 2001 to reach a value of £38 million (€61 million). The operable systems market is estimated to have grown by 30 percent during the review period, to reach £26 million (€42 million) ·
