Wovon das Geschäft abhängt

1. 1Demand depends in part on home construction, home sales and remodeling, which are affected by housing affordability, interest rates and consumer spending.
2. 2Manufacturing depends on materials such as clay, wood, resins, plastics, glass fiber and petroleum-based carpet inputs; temporary supply disruptions can affect production.
3. 3The business sells and manufactures in many countries, including Russia, and is exposed to changes in trade rules, tariffs, currency rates and geopolitical conditions.
4. 4The company relies on its ability to recover increases in raw-material, labor, energy and transportation costs through pricing, while competing products and market conditions can limit that ability.
