Fredrik Zöögling, CEO and President of ProfilGruppen, comments:
”During the autumn, demand has declined. We have had the flexibility to adapt production capacity to demand on an ongoing basis, but were recently forced to give notice of termination of 25 employees as a further step.
 We will continue to maintain good delivery reliability to our customers and will be responsive to how the order situation develops and adapt to the changes.”
