General information on Slovenia’s economy
1.1.
Member of Euro-zone since 1/1/2007
Slovenia was one of the Central-European countries joining the European Union in May 2004 and was the first of
the new member states to join the Euro-zone on 1 January 2007. This joining of the Euro-zone, which went quite
smoothly, highlights that the country’s economy was and still is the most advanced in Central-Europe. As a matter
of fact, Slovenia’s wealth is quite well up to EU-averages: GDP per capita, which is commonly used to measure a
nation’s wealth, has reached around 80% of the EU-28 average in 2013.

Gross Domestic Product growth in recent years
After exiting recession in 2013, the Slovenian economy grew by 2,5% year-over-year in the first half of 2014.
Slovenia has been increasing its export market shares, particularly for goods, since 2013 and net exports have
remained the largest contributor to economic growth in the first half of 2014. Investment was another significant
contributor to growth, driven by EU-funded infrastructure projects, while investment in equipment fell further.

Forecast
Autumn
2014:
Stable labour market and low inflation
Unemployment peaked at 10,2% in February 2014 and is expected to continue declining over the forecast
horizon. Private sector wages are expected to continue rising moderately but the continued containment of
public sector wages in 2014 and 2015 will help restrain overall wage dynamics.
This, combined with a recovery in productivity this year, implies that overall unit labour costs are set to fall by
1,2% in 2014 and then remain stable, supporting external competitiveness.
Given the downward trend in prices for raw materials and energy, the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices
(HICP) is forecast to decline to historically low levels in 2014 and increase only marginally in 2015 and 2016,
mainly due to slowly rising oil prices and the expected recovery of domestic demand.
(source: The European Economic Forecast Autumn 2014)
1.4.
Foreign Trade
Most of Slovenia’s foreign trade occurs with the EU. In November 2014 more than three quarters of Slovenia’s
trade in goods was generated in trade with EU Member States; 78.0% of total exports and 78.3% of total imports.
The growth of exports in November 2014 compared to November 2013 was caused by higher exports to EU
Member States (by 10.3%), while exports to EU non-member countries were almost the same (0.1% lower).
Exports to EU Member States amounted to EUR 1,567.1 million and exports to EU non-member countries to EUR
443.2 million.
In the January-November 2014 period Slovenia exported most products from the group of medicaments and
imported most products from the group of oils obtained from bituminous minerals.

The building sector in Slovenia
2.1.
Overview and main categories
In Slovenia, the building sector is divided into two broad categories: construction (both residential and nonresidential) and civil engineering works. For ease of use, the sector can be subdivided into three segments:
residential buildings, non-residential buildings (for offices as well as for commercial use) and civil engineering
(construction of roads, tunnels etc.).
Are there better times ahead for construction activity in Slovenia? Economic recession delivered a serious blow
to construction activity, which was in decline since 2008. However, it has been slowly growing again since April
2013.
2.2.
Slovenia’s construction during economic recession
In 2012, 18,392 enterprises with predominantly market activities were registered in construction activity in
Slovenia, which is 5.4% less than in 2008, when construction activity peaked, and 2.9% less than in 2011. In 2012,
most construction enterprises performed specialised construction work (79.8%); they were followed by
enterprises engaged in construction of buildings (17.2%) and those engaged in civil engineering (3.0%).
In 2012, construction enterprises employed 62,357 people, 30.5% less than in 2008 and 9.6% less than in 2011.
Compared to 2008, the number of employees in enterprises engaged in construction of buildings was almost cut
in half (it dropped by 45.5%). The number of employees in enterprises engaged in civil engineering decreased by
38.7% and in enterprises performing specialised construction work by 17.8%.
In 2012, construction enterprises generated just over EUR 1.2 billion of value added, which was 41.6% less than
in 2008 and 5.2% less than in 2011. More than half of the value added (54.0%) was generated by enterprises
performing specialised construction work, almost a quarter (24.8%) by enterprises engaged in construction of
buildings and 21.2% by enterprises engaged in civil engineering.
Earnings in the total amount of almost EUR 768 million were paid in construction activity in 2012, which is almost
a third (31.0%) less than in 2008 and 11.3% less than in 2011. Compared to 2011, earnings declined the most in
enterprises engaged in civil engineering (by 20.5%), and the least in enterprises performing specialised
construction work (by 4.3%). In enterprises engaged in construction of buildings the amount decreased by 15.0%.
In 2012, construction enterprises with at least 20 persons in employment generated EUR 75 million of gross fixed
capital formation, which is 1.6% of total gross fixed capital formation in Slovenia or 22.5% more than in 2011.
The largest share of gross fixed capital formation was generated in 2008, 4.0% of total gross fixed capital
formation in Slovenia.
According to Eco Fund data, in 2008-2013 more than 63,000 investments in residential buildings were
implemented and just over EUR 88 million of subsidies were paid for this purpose. The Eco Fund started its
activity in 2008, when the share of Eco Fund subsidies amounted to 0.6% of the value of construction put in place
on residential buildings at current prices. In the following years the share of subsidies was growing and in 2013
it was 11.5% of the value of construction put in place in residential buildings. All investment for 2013 has not yet
been made and the funds have not yet been paid. Based on the data we estimate that in 2013 the share could
be close to 13.0% of the value of construction put in place in residential buildings. Most of the investment was
made in one-dwelling buildings; in 2008 the share was 84.5%, but by 2013 it fell to 69.2% of all subsidies. In
recent years the share of investment in two-dwelling buildings was around 5.0%, while the share of investment
in three- and more dwelling buildings was rising; in 2013 it was 25.2%.

2.3.
Value of construction put in place during the economic crisis
The value of construction put in place in Slovenia in 2013 was 2.6% lower than in 2012. In the same comparison
the decrease in the EU was slightly lower, i.e. by 2.2%. In Slovenia the value of construction put in place in
buildings was 20.4% lower and in civil engineering 6.2% higher. In the EU the value of construction put in place
in buildings was 1.8% lower and in civil engineering 3.6% lower.
Compared to 2008, the value of construction put in place in Slovenia in 2013 was 60.1% lower (in the EU 18.7%
lower). As regards buildings, it was 73.5% lower in Slovenia and 19.7% lower in the EU. As regards civil
engineering, it was 51.3% lower in Slovenia and 14.1% lower in the EU.
In 2013, construction activity was lower than in Slovenia only in Greece and Cyprus. Compared to the EU average,
construction activity in Slovenia was 31.1% lower in 2013; the highest values were recorded in Estonia, Latvia
and Lithuania.

Are better times ahead for construction activity?
In the first four months of 2014 the value of construction put in place in Slovenian was 40% higher than in the
first four months of 2013. In this comparison the growth in the EU was much lower; only by 2.6%. As regards
buildings, the growth was higher in the EU (by 7.8%) than in Slovenia (by 6.2%), while as regards civil engineering,
the growth was higher in Slovenia (by 57.4%) than in the EU (by only 2.7%).
The value of construction put in place in Slovenia in April 2014 was 6.7% higher than a month before, while in
the EU it was higher by only 0.6%. As regards buildings, the value was 0.5% higher in Slovenia and 0.9% higher in
the EU, while as regards civil engineering, the value was 5.2% higher in Slovenia and 0.8% lower in the EU. The
highest growth over the previous month was recorded in Slovenia, Spain and Portugal and the greatest drop in
Poland, Romania and Slovakia.

The data indicate that the situation Slovenia’s construction activity is slowly improving, particularly as regards
civil engineering, which is the result of increased investment in public infrastructure with the help of European
funds. The increase in civil engineering at the beginning of this year was also the result of disaster recovery (ice
storm).
The shares of the value of construction put in place by type of construction have changed significantly over the
past few years. In 2006, 54.5% of work was done in buildings and 45.6% in civil engineering. From 2011 on, much
more has been done in civil engineering. In 2013, only 36.4% of work was done in buildings and as much as 63.6%
in civil engineering.

Trends in construction costs in Slovenia differ from EU trends
Trends in construction costs for new residential buildings were slightly different in Slovenia than in the EU as a
whole. In 2006 and 2007, i.e. before 2008 when construction activity in Slovenia peaked, construction costs in
Slovenia were on average higher than in the EU. The situation was the same in 2008; however, the costs in
Slovenia already slightly declined, while in the EU they went slightly up. In 2008, when Slovenia recorded the
highest volume of construction put in place in the observed period (2006 to 2013), construction costs were on
average 1.9% higher than in the EU. After that Slovenia recorded a large drop in construction costs (by 9.6%),
while in the EU they declined on average by 3.9%. On average, in the observed period construction costs were
the lowest both in Slovenia and in the EU in 2009.
In 2010 and 2011, construction costs in Slovenia were again higher than the EU average. In the last two years,
i.e. 2012 and 2013, construction costs in Slovenia were, the same as in 2009 after the peak in 2008, again lower
than the EU average.
In 2013, Slovenia recorded a 0.1% rise in construction costs over the previous year, while in the same comparison
construction costs in the EU overall declined by 1.0%. In 2013, construction costs in Slovenia were 1.9% lower
than the EU average.

After six years of decline the number of building permits up again
After six years of decline between 2007 and 2012, in 2013 the number of issued building permits increased again.
Compared to 2012 it went up by 7.4%. The floor area of buildings for which building permits were issued
increased by 3.9%; the area of residential buildings went up by 5.5% and the area of non-residential buildings by
2.2%.
Construction confidence indicator above the long-term average
In June 2014, the construction confidence indicator was 4% lower than in the previous month and 14% higher
than in June 2013. Compared to the 2008 average it was 8.5% lower. The long-term average value (from 2002 to
2013) was -18. In all months of 2014 the construction confidence indicator was above the long-term average; in
June 2014 by 11%. With further gradual economic upturn, in the euro area too in the first quarter of 2014 the
consumer confidence and the economic climate improved, which has a favorable impact on current trends in
construction activity.

2.4.
Residential housing price indices
In the first quarter of 2014 dwelling prices in Slovenia were on average 1.7% lower than in the fourth quarter of
2013.
Prices of new dwellings slightly up again
For the second consecutive quarter the prices of new dwellings – i.e. newly built flats and family houses together
– went slightly up. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2013 they were on average 2.0% higher. Both the prices of
newly built flats and of newly built family houses increased by the same percent.
After the record drop in the third quarter of 2013 (by 15.1%), which was the result of the sale of a large number
of flats from the bankruptcy estate of bankrupt enterprises, in the first quarter of 2014 the prices of newly built
flats went further up, this time by 2.0%. Nevertheless, the price level of newly built flats remained very low.
Prices of existing dwellings continue to fall; the number of transactions is stagnating
Compared to the previous quarter, in the first quarter of 2014 the prices of existing flats in Slovenia decreased
on average by 3.7%. The prices of existing flats in Ljubljana decreased for the seventh consecutive quarter, this
time by 1.8%. They fell to the level of the first quarter of 2006. Existing flats in Ljubljana are the real estate
category that lost the greatest value compared to the 2010 average prices, particularly in 2013. On the other
hand, the prices of existing flats outside Ljubljana were not falling as rapidly as the prices in Ljubljana; a larger
drop happened in the first quarter of 2014, i.e. by 4.9%. The number of transactions of existing flats (1,073) was
very close to the quarterly average of 2013.

Building materials branches
This part of the market study focuses on some specific niche segments of Slovenia’s construction industry by
providing:
a)
Some concise general information;
b) A list of the main Slovenian players (manufacturing and/or distributing) in each niche segment;
c)
3.1.
Market opportunities for Flemish construction (materials) companies, if appropriate.
General introductory note as to foundations, floorings and wall building
It is important to note that Slovenia is situated in a geological area that is prone to earthquakes; an area that
stretches south-east to Macedonia. In 1963 there was e.g. a serious earthquake in Skopje. After that 1963
earthquake, more stringent regulations have been introduced not only with regard to foundations, but also with
regard to wall buildings and floorings. Before the 1963 Skopje earthquake, floor structures of buildings were
made of cast-in-place concrete over clay brick blocks or sometimes even simply of wood. External walls
(sometimes called “envelope walls”) were built of clay brick masonry or cast-in-place concrete, whilst internal
walls were constructed in clay brick masonry mostly as non-load bearing partition walls (with only some load
bearing ones). After the 1963 earthquake, all this changed. First, floor constructions were made mostly of castin-place reinforced concrete. Also, the number of internal load bearing walls increased, so as to give higher
earthquake resistance to buildings, whilst many of these internal load bearing walls are nowadays of reinforced
concrete (clay brick masonry is used only for a few non load bearing partition walls). Wood is almost never used
anymore for floor structures nor for external walls (except for some areas in the mountains and for small cottage
houses). As a result, nowadays a lot of reinforced concrete is used in constructions not only for the foundations
and ceilings, but also for external as well as internal (load bearing) walls.
10
3.2.
Floor coverings
Whilst reinforced concrete is most often used for foundations and floor constructions, a variety of building
materials can be used for floor coverings, with tiles or wood being used most of the time. Typically in Slovenia,
tiles are used in places like kitchen or bathroom, whereas wood is used elsewhere either in the form of parquet
or laminate. Both tiles and wood are used in a variety of forms, going from very basic forms to more sophisticated
and/or design ones (tiles: design mosaics; wood: multi-layer parquet). Fixed carpet is also used e.g. typically in
sleeping rooms, be it much less than in Flanders.
Please find below a list of Slovenian manufacturers or (wholesale) distributors of the main floor covering products
(tiles, parquet/laminate, fixed carpets). Although Slovenian manufacturers have quite a tradition in parquets,
there is a wide offer of imported parquet on the market. As for floor covering tiles and fixed carpet, foreign (i.e.
imported) products dominate the Slovenian market, as the country does not have such a long tradition.

3.3.
Building materials for walls (external and internal)
As mentioned before, the most commonly used material used for external walls and for internal load-bearing
walls is concrete, which is very often reinforced, so as to enhance earthquake resistance. For the rest, i.e. the
construction of (non-load bearing) internal walls or exceptionally some external walls (e.g. in case of cottage
houses), a wide variety of building materials is used for wall building, such as: simple and/or special (e.g. hollow)
bricks, ceramic materials, decorative stone strips, silicates and, last but not least, wood.
Like everywhere else, there is quite some interest in Slovenia in using natural stones, such as granite or marble,
in the construction. Some of these natural stones are produced locally, whilst others are imported, such as
marble from nearby Italy. Below is a list of the main Slovenian importers and (wholesale) distributors of natural
stones.
A well-known but albeit unique example is the Slovenian company Marmor Hotavlje. It produces stone blocks
which are won from its own quarries, such as the famous Karnian limestone from their Hotavlje quarry (hence
sometimes called Hotavlje marble). The company also imports and distributes a variety of other natural stones
(such as granite, sandstone, quartzite etc.). Website: http://www.marmor-hotavlje.si/?jezik=ang

Roofings
The type of framing as well as of roofs depends not only on the building (i.e. the way it is built), but also on the
area (i.e. where it is built). In residential housing, the framing still is very often done in wood, especially in the
mountains (e.g. northern and north-western parts of the country, close to Austria), whereas metal framings are
more used in non-residential building. In the main cities, recently built apartment blocks often have a flat roof,
which is in concrete.
The roof coverings can vary a lot, depending on the type of roof and building. For residential building, roofing
tiles are still the most popular material used. Needless to say that these roofing tiles exist in a lot of varieties
(ceramic or cement tiles) and colours. In Slovenia, also roofing tiles in metal have become quite popular,
especially in areas that have been hit in the recent past by stormy weather (Slovenia’s north-eastern part for
instance has been hit a couple of times by heavy hail storms). These roofing tiles look like traditional ones, usually
in a classical colour (red), but are of metal. Other ways to cover roofs are: bituminous tiles or sheets, roofing
paper (flat roofs), corrugated sheets (industrial buildings) or in cement, either as such or reinforced with fibers
or metal.
Below is a list of the main Slovenian producers and/or distributors of roofing materials:

Windows and doors
As to doors and windows, Slovenia does not differ much from other Western countries. Wood is preferred for
doors (external as well as internal ones). The same goes for windows, although here other materials, such as
PVC, are chosen more rapidly, because of lower prices or of construction (e.g. roof windows that can open
electronically).
Given Slovenia’s tradition in wood processing, there are also quite some local producers of (wooden) doors and
windows. Below is a list of Slovenian manufacturers as well as importers and (wholesale) distributors of doors
and windows.

Energy installations
In Europe, energy performance in buildings is regulated by the so-called Energy Performance Buildings Directive
(‘EPBD’). In Slovenia, it is the responsibility of the Ministry of Environment and Spatial Planning to transpose this
European EPBD-legislation in Slovenia’s national legislation. The EPBD-legislation has been integrated in the
following three acts: the Building Construction Act, an Environmental Protection Act and, last but not least, an
amendment (mid November 2007) to the Energy Act.
Heating systems: classical systems (gas, oil, coal)
In most of the residential apartment blocks built in the period 1945 – 1980/90s, the most popular type of heating
system is central heating, which uses water, steam or air to heat the apartments. Those heating systems have to
provide for a boiler room (often quite big for the entire block), a system of pipes and then heaters in each of the
apartments/rooms. The boilers are most often heated by gas (coal being rather the exception). Larger apartment
blocks have even heat and power units (co-generation). In most modern residential buildings, radiators are still
used to get the heating into the rooms, but floor heating has become quite popular to heat the whole apartment
or house (not only the bathroom). In detached houses, the boiler is powered by gas or by oil, both being equally
important.
Below is a list of Slovenian manufacturers and/or distributors of heating systems:

Heating systems: renewables (biomass, hydro-energy and solar energy)
Since many years, Slovenia has given priority to renewable energy, not only because of the country’s green focus,
but also because of strategic reasons (Slovenia wants to become less dependent on the import of energy as ca.
70% of its total primary energy needs to be imported). The most popular renewable clearly is biomass, which is
not surprising given the country’s wood industry. Below are two main Slovenian players in biomass:

Some more info on biomass development and research in Slovenia can be found here:
http://www.zgs.si/eng/events/index.html
http://www.aure.gov.si/
As said, biomass is the most popular source of renewable energy. Other renewables like solar or wind energy are
far less developed in Slovenia, although some research is done:
Energy Restructuring Agency (ApE): http://www.ape.si/
Energap - Institute for Sustainable Energy Use: http://www.energap.si/?viewPage=87
Last but not least, (energy) ‘installations’ is an area where there are opportunities for Flemish companies, as the
country doesn’t have that much own production, not only of energy installations, but also more generally
(electrical installations, wires etc.). As a result, many items (biomass kettles, wires a.o.) are imported from abroad
(Austria, Germany or Italy).

Air conditioning systems
Regular (at least once a year) inspection of air conditioning is part of the Energy Performance Buildings Directive
(‘EPBD’, see also paragraph above: Energy installations). When discussing the integration of the EU’s EPBD into
Slovenian legislation, a proviso was made with regard to the date from when yearly inspections of air
conditioning systems would become obligatory in Slovenia. It was agreed that such inspections would become
obligatory as from 1 January 2008 onwards.

This topic comprises a wide variety of products that are made out of one or another chemical substance(s) and
that are used in the building industry, such as coatings, paints, glue, silicones, impregnates, resins, solvents,
jointing or sealing compounds and various agents (auxiliary, acid proof, anti-corrosive or fire-protection agents).
A main player is Helios Group (based in Domzale, near Ljubljana), the leading manufacturer of coatings in South
Eastern Europe with approximately 3,000 employees in more than thirty companies in fourteen countries:

Road infrastructure
In 1994, Slovenia started to implement their so-called National Programme for Motorway Construction (NPIA),
which is conducted and implemented by DARS, a joint-stock company owned by the Slovenian State. In recent
years, the National Programme focused on the expansion of the existing highway network, most notably on
completing two important Pan-European transport corridors V and X, linking respectively Barcelona to Kiev and
Salzburg to Thessalonica. Both transport corridors intersect on the ring around Ljubljana. Unfortunately, most of
the companies involved in NPIA are Slovenian. Info:
http://www.dars.si/Dokumenti/About_motorways/National_motorway_construction_programme_282.aspx. A
part from the crucial highway corridors and road construction works take place on the following routes: Maribor
– Zagreb; Slovenian coast – Rijeka (port in the North of Croatia); ring around Maribor; Ptuj (near Maribor) –
border with Croatia.
4.2.
Tunnels
With regard to the existing or recently expanded highway network, the main tunnels have been constructed. The
most recently completed tunnel is the well-known Sentvid-Koseze, which connects the highway corridor X
(coming through Karavanke-tunnel) to the ring around Ljubljana. It is well-known for two reasons: a) there was
a considerable overrun on both costs and time; b) in the beginning, it was plagued by technical deficiencies, to
the extent that it had to be closed down twice for a short period.
As a result, main works relating to the existing tunnels concern maintenance. There may be opportunities in the
area regarding maintenance/upgrading of signalisation or lighting. Another area that needs constant checking
and maintenance is fire ventilation systems.
4.3.
Road viaducts and bridges
For the time being, no major road viaducts and/or bridges are planned. If so in the future, they are subject to a
tender procedure, which can be followed up on the following Website:
http://www.cwctenders.com/construction_tenders_slovenia.htm

Some important players in infrastructure
The market for infrastructure is dominated by a few players who are producing cement and concrete. The main
companies producing concrete are:

4.5.
Railway network construction
With regard to railway network construction, priority is given to the completion of Pan-European railway
networks. In Slovenia, there are two main railway corridors. Corridor V starts in Northern Italy (i.e. from Venice
over Trieste) and goes over Koper, Ljubljana and Maribor (Slovenia), and continues over Budapest direction
Ukraine. As the Slovenian part between Divaca and Koper consists of only one single railway, the priority is to
build a double railway, which is vital for transport from/to the port of Koper. The part connecting Ljubljana and
Budapest is also being upgraded, as parts of this connection still consist of single-line tracks, as one can see on
the picture in following link:
http://www.slo-zeleznice.si/en/company/infrastructure/rail_network/types_of_railway_track
The second main network is Corridor X, which connects Salzburg (Austria) to Istanbul (Turkey) and goes via
Jesenice, Ljubljana (intersection with Corridor V) over Zidani Most, Zagreb (Croatia), Skopje (Macedonia) and
Thessalonica (Greece) to Istanbul.
The modernization of the railways is clearly the first priority of Slovenia’s Ministry of Transport. More details of
the modernization plan (2007-2013) can be found here:

Contracting Companies
Slovenian construction companies were renowned in South East Europe for constructing firm viaducts, bridges
and buildings. But over the course of just one year the sector itself has fallen like a house of cards. Of the three
leading construction companies in the country, one has gone bankrupt (Vegrad), one into receivership (SCT) and
the third (Primorje) has recently been given a six month loan moratorium by the banks.
Small companies, which were not contaminated with business with big companies, seem to flourish as do some
international builders like Strabag from Austria.
Cooperation of Slovenian construction companies with the foreign ones is becoming more and more important.

Fairs for the construction industry
In Slovenia, there are two important trade fairs for the construction industry: MEGRA (in Gornja Radgona) and
Dom (in Ljubljana). The two fairs focus on construction as well as on construction materials for both inside and
outside. The DOM-fair is perhaps somewhat more international, as it takes place in the capital (Ljubljana), whilst
at the MEGRA fair also a lot (heavy) machines and machinery used in the construction industry, is exhibited.
MEGRA fair takes place together with the Energetics fair ENGRA and the fair of Municipal Services, Landscaping
and Ecology KOGRA (together called the 'Spring Fair)
