AMA Research are pleased to announce the publication of the 4th Edition of the report ‘ Commercial Interior Refurbishment and Fit-Out Market - UK 2010-2014’. This report provides a detailed insight into this market, providing analyses of key trends in the industry at large, together with a review of key end-use sectors.

Following a buoyant period up to 2008, this £multi-billion market is now experiencing a downturn in 2009-10, largely driven by decline in the commercial office and retail sectors, though the public sector has been reasonably strong to date.

Beyond 2011, it is expected that demand for fit-out & interior refurbishment will start to recover slowly as supply and demand for retail and office space becomes more balanced, and developments related to the 2012 Olympic Games benefit the sector. However, this will be offset by a slowdown in the public sector as spending cuts by the new Coalition Government begin to impact on refurbishment programmes, which makes forecasting the timing and speed of recovery difficult.

Additional Information

The interior fit-out and refurbishment market, as defined in this report, is estimated to be worth approximately £7.1bn in 2009, having experienced significant decline in the last 2 years, as shown in the chart left:

Up to 2008, market performance had been very buoyant for the sector, with growth in most key application areas. Offices, retail, leisure and the public sector all experienced growth in new build and refurbishment as companies and organisations upgraded existing facilities in a buoyant economy.

However, performance has been very difficult in most end use sectors in 2008-09, reflecting the general decline in construction output and RMI. Decline has been strongest in the private sector, with offices and retail both experiencing major downturns in new build which inevitably feeds into major refurbishment projects.

The speed and timing of recovery will be dependent on a number of factors including the extent of decline in public sector spending, the timing and speed of recovery in the private sector in key end use markets such as offices and retail, and the resulting effect on consumer confidence and spending.

Taking a wider perspective over the 2008-2012 period, the market will have experienced extremely volatile conditions with significant variations at sector level over this period. Initially, the decline in 2008/09 was primarily driven by the downturn in the private sector, with the public sector remaining buoyant. However, performance in 2010 - and progressively into 2011/2012 - will see a reversal of this trend as the public sector experiences cutbacks with prospects in the fit-out market increasingly dependent on a recovery in the private sector.

As a result, overall forecasts for 2010-12 are difficult to make at this stage, but short term prospects will remain difficult. There have been some tentative signs of optimism in the private sector, but spending plans for the public sector will emerge slowly through the Emergency Budget in June to be followed by the Autumn Spending Review when more detailed departmental budgets are developed.

Individual company performances have already been very variable and will contine to do so over the next 3-4 years, reflecting specific areas/sectors of expertise.
