Schaan (FL), May 16, 2025 – From January to April 2025 the Hilti Group increased sales in local currencies by 1.4 percent compared to the same period last year.

European business remained stable overall. However, sales dropped by 2.7 percent in local currencies due to discontinued operations in Russia and Belarus.

The Asia/Pacific region grew by 0.1 percent in local currencies while the Middle East / Africa region grew by 10.1 percent in local currencies amid a positive market environment.
