While the net result is a slight decline in revenues, there are big variances among products, industries, and countries. High efficiency air filters will be down but medium efficiency air filter sales will be up. Reverse osmosis filter sales will be up, whereas, drum filter sales will be down. Electrostatic precipitator sales will be down but fabric filter sales will be up.The big winners and losers by industry are shown graphically at http://www.mcilvainecompany.com/charts/2009WinnersLosers.htm. Geographical differences will be substantial. Markets in developed countries will decline while markets in developing countries will actually increase.
