What data can I find in the Stats Dashboard? 

The Stats Dashboard highlights data from NFPA’s various market reports. Data in the dashboard is linked back to the report it was pulled from. This makes it easy for members to dig deeper into any information they find interesting or useful. Types of data include: 
– Fluid power shipment trends
– End use market shipment trends 
– Producer price indexes 
– Industry and country forecasts 
– US imports and exports of fluid power products
– Various survey result highlights 

How often is the Stats Dashboard updated? 

The dashboard is updated monthly as new data becomes available. The dashboard is a great page to bookmark for quick and easy updates on the latest fluid power trends. 

Recent Insights:

NFPA produces indexes every month tracking shipments of US production for fluid power manufacturers. Here are some insights from the latest release: 

  • Shipments in November 2023 were down 5.4% compared to November 2022.
  • When looking at a 12-month moving average, total fluid power shipments are continuing to drop from their historical peak earlier in 2023.
