The shortage of accurate market sector information — especially in relation to volume and related sales figures — is common to many industries in Ireland. Quite rightly, individual market players are reluctant to reveal their respective figures to rival players yet, because of that, it is near impossible for them to accurately assess their market share.
Against that background Pressline is charged by a number of industry representative bodies to collate the volume and sales figure of all the members. These are then collated and presented to all contributors in an Excel spreadsheet that gives a full overview of the marketplace, including sales and volume figures, in the designated category breakdown agreed. That way all can accurately assess the size of the market, and their own individual percentage market share.
Obviously, Pressline is trusted not to disclose individual company details. Most recent market survey completed is for heat pumps sales in Ireland in 2013 on behalf of the Heat Pump Association of Ireland.






Pressline Ltd was established in 1985 and offers a diverse range of publishing (print and online), event management, advertising and business-to-business interface services. Pressline's effectiveness owes as much to its ability to assume the mindset of the client's market segment, as that of its professionalism in its own business.
Apart from the principal — Pat Lehane, a fully-qualified and highly-experienced technical journalist — Pressline has a dynamic team of journalists and designers, all of whom regularly work on both print and web-based projects. Critical to the final solutions they deliver is their ability to function as a cohesive unit to provide a cost-effective, hassle-free service to the client.
Even management such as product launches, conferences, industry awards and skill demonstrations ... these are but some of the many services provided by Pressline Ltd. No matter what the objective or requirement, Pressline has over 30 years experience in the sector.
