Schweigen has confirmed double-digit growth from its rangehoods over the final three months of 2024 and the first month of 2025.
This growth reinforces the data released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics that shows household electrical products have grown over the last two months of 2024.
According to Schweigen director Anthony Fletcher, this growth in both volume and value has been primarily driven by undermount rangehoods which represent a large majority of sales within the business.
“In October, November and December 2024 and again in January 2025 we have seen double-digit growth from our core retailer base,” Fletcher said.
“This growth represents a higher level of confidence in the marketplace as well as Schweigen’s marketing and brand exposure which has been a key area of investment for our business.
“We have noticed that people have held off buying appliances for a while, but there appears to have been a glimmer of hope on the horizon for consumers coming into 2025. We are seeing more consumers making the decision to invest in a renovation that they have been putting off for the past 12 to 18 months.
“Undermount rangehoods have been driving the growth in the category for Schweigen with our BAL-rated external motor systems.”
Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) rated external venting ensures the safety of a building in a bushfire-prone area and prevents embers from entering and igniting combustible materials inside with the use of a specific cinder mesh kit.
