Schaan (FL), May 21, 2026 - In the first four months of the current year the Hilti Group increased sales by 4.7 percent in local currencies. Due to the ongoing appreciation of the Swiss franc against all major currencies, the negative currency effect rose to 6.2 percentage points. In Swiss francs, total sales reached CHF 2068 million (-1.5%).
In the Americas, the Hilti Group increased sales by 9.6 percent in local currencies. In Europe, given the continued soft construction market, growth was at 0.8 percent in local currencies. In the Middle East / Africa region, sales grew at a double-digit rate (+17.5% in local currencies). Asia/Pacific recorded growth of 6.6 percent in local currencies in what remained a heterogeneous environment.
For 2026, the Hilti Group expects low to mid-single-digit sales growth in local currencies in the current uncertain global environment.
