Molding, Trim Market Is Forecast To Grow 10% per Year to 2014

Demand nationwide for molding and trim will rise 10% annually to become a $10.15 billion market by 2014, largely because of a revival in new-home construction, the Freedonia Group forecasts. That’s a turnaround from the previous five-year period, when the market shrank by an average 7.6% annually and demand dwindled to $6.3 billion by 2009, the Cleveland-based research group says.
