-- In 2015 the trailer market has got off to a strong start with registrations of new trailers forecast to grow by 12.8% in the first half and 4.7% in the second. Overall then, the market will be stronger than anticipated six months ago... The reason is that several markets which have struggled since the global financial crisis have started 2015 very strongly. Italy for example is up 68% in the first four months of the year and will finish the year up be a similar percentage. Spain, where registrations last year were half pre-crisis levels, has started the year up 60%... Two countries which have recovered quite well from the crisis have also had strong starts. The Netherland is up 31% for the first four months of the year suggesting that 2015 trailer demand will be very healthy. The UK, which set a new record for trailer demand in 2014 looks set for another very strong year... These four countries plus Denmark will account for almost all the extra demand for trailers compared to last year’s forecast figure. Italy and the Netherlands will also be strong in 2016... The forecast for new trailer demand is that it will match the level of 2006 by 2016. It remains unlikely that the demand level of 2007/8 will be seen again. However, 2006 was the third highest trailer registrations level on record... Trailer production, having fallen by 9.2% from the 2011 level, had a 12.2% increase in 2014. Further increases are forecast for 2015/16...
