EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The French market for active fire protection
equipment is estimated to have increased by 20 percent in value terms between 1993 and
1997 to reach FF5.14 billion (ECU0.78 billion) at end user prices. The market
has been mainly affected by the level of construction output combined with
changing regulations in the French and European markets during the review
period.
Fire detection systems and sprinklers both
accounted for the largest proportion of the total market in 1997 with a share
of 29 percent each. The fire detection systems sector has increased its share of the
market during the review period as a result of a strong increase in the value
market with a rise of 98 percent between 1993 and 1997. Portable extinguishers
accounted for the third largest sector with an estimated 20 percent of the total
market in 1997. The remainder of the market was accounted for by emergency
lighting and alarms, fixed extinguishing systems and hose reels.
MSI forecast that the market for active fire
protection will increase by 2 percent in real value terms during 1998. The market is
expected to grow more significantly in the years thereafter mainly as a result
of a recovery in the construction industry and further changes in the
regulatory situation.
A number of factors are believed to be critical to
the success of companies operating in the French market for active fire
protection including:
- - the company reputation
- - highly trained and qualified
employees
- - compliance of products with French and
European norms
- - after sales and additional
services
- - product range
- - research and development
- - price
- - geographical proximity
The distribution channels used in the market for
active fire protection vary from one segment to another. Nevertheless, the
various types of installers involved in the market include manufacturers or
distributors which integrate installation, specialised installers, and major
contractors such as construction, electrical, mechanical and process plant
contractors.
The active fire protection industry is
characterised by a combination of large, multi-sector companies supplying
several sectors and smaller, dedicated manufacturers supplying to specific
markets. Major changes have been reported in the industry with a number of
French companies being taken over by international groups.
