“In the beginning of 2019 our business has continued to be stable in a construction market where demand is generally good but conditions vary depending on location and product. We have a strong order backlog in 2019 and with the wide range of our business we can handle a downturn in some product areas with an upturn in others,” says Jesper Göransson, CEO and President of Peab.
