The Overall Consumer Electronics Market<\/p>\n \n

Consumer Electronics<\/h2>\n

Growth at a Low Level<\/h3>\n

While the market for household appliances remains robust overall, the consumer electronics (CE) segment \u2013 which consists of entertainment electronics, telecommunications, and IT \u2013 presents a more mixed picture. The year 2026 constitutes a transitional phase: Following negligible growth in 2024 and 2025, the overall CE market is projected to see a slight revenue increase of 0.5 percent initially. For 2027, however, we expect a noticeably more positive trend of +1.85 percent, to 60 billion euro. This momentum is driven primarily by information technology (IT) and telecommunications (telecom).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
