Feldkirchen (Munich), 7 February 2023 - The STEICO Group (ISIN DE000A0LR936) is operating in a market environment that is experiencing a phase of normalisation after booming demand for around two years. Wood-fibre insulation materials are now again enjoying short-term availability, which is why dealers and processing companies are returning their stocks to normal levels. This development also characterised the fourth quarter of 2022. The winter season in the record-breaking year 2021 was extraordinarily strong, however customer ordering behaviour in the winter of 2022/2023 got back to normal with inventory levels falling.
