Explore Industry Data by State
Interest in geographically focused industry data continues to increase among NFPA members. Updated in late 2020, the U.S. Fluid Power Regional Demand Estimates provides that data with:
- Estimated geographic distribution of fluid power products to end-use industries by state,
- Fluid power sales dollar estimates, fluid power sales percentage estimates, and number of establishments for each industry in every state,
