NFPA’s Econ and Market Indicators (EMI)

NFPA’s Customer Market File and Trends in Capacity Utilization reports have been combined to create Econ and Market Indicators (EMI). This report contains public data in the forms of shipments, orders, industrial production, capacity utilization, and producer price indexes for a variety of popular fluid power customer markets. The EMI can be downloaded as an excel file which gives members access to the raw data or viewed as interactive charts and tables with built in analysis.

Access both versions of the EMI by clicking here: https://nfpahub.com/reports/econ-market-indicator/

This data will be updated monthly, tracking with the US Census Bureau’s M3 Release. If you have any questions about NFPA’s EMI, please contact sdiedrich@nfpa.com.
