GERMANY – Schattdecor Group, a global leader in decorative surfaces, reported preliminary sales of approximately EUR 875 million for the 2024 financial year, coming in slightly below the previous year.

Despite the modest decline in revenue, production remained robust with 1.4 billion square meters printed and 770 million square meters of finished surfaces produced—marking a slight year-on-year increase in the latter.

Chief Financial Officer and Board Spokesperson Dr. Derick Beitel described 2024 as another year of significant challenges, citing global economic uncertainty and rising geopolitical tensions. He noted that, despite these pressures, the company remains optimistic. A key disruption came from flooding at Schattdecor’s plant in Glucholazy, Poland, which was swiftly addressed, allowing the company to resume full delivery operations in a short time.

Looking ahead, Schattdecor plans to invest over EUR 40 million in 2025 to expand production capacity, integrate new technologies, and grow its international infrastructure. Strategic priorities include digitalization, machinery upgrades, infrastructure development, and enhancing in-house energy production.

According to Beitel, the company is committed to growing sustainably and profitably, with ongoing focus on innovative products and market expansion. Among its core development areas is the advancement of thermoplastic surfaces, which remain a central part of its product offering.

Schattdecor, headquartered in Germany, supplies high-quality printed and finished surfaces used in furniture, flooring, and interior design.
