Communication Equipment Manufacturing in Italy Industry Data and Analysis
The communication equipment industry is experiencing high demand for smartphones, burglar alarms and fire and smoke detectors. Modern smartphones are equipped with numerous functions that make life easier for consumers, while sales of traditional home phones have declined. As technology advances and regulations tighten, interest in security devices such as burglar and fire alarms is growing. Despite these advances, the industry is facing saturation and significant competition, particularly from abroad. As a result, many European manufacturers have relocated their production to Asian countries such as China and Vietnam to take advantage of lower labour costs and access to unsaturated markets. Over the five years through 2024, industry revenue is expected to sink at a compound annual rate of 5.2% to €65.9 billion.
