Techtronic Industries's power tools business grew strongly in the first half of the year, while the floor care business shrank due to slowing demand and customer inventory reduction. Today, as the global leader in professional plug-in tools, the Group's flagship MILWAUKEE business continues to flourish, recording 25.8% sales growth in the first half of the year in local currency terms. This business now accounts for a major part of the company's sales, and the gross profit margin is also growing.
