Austrian parquet manufacturer Weitzer Parkett is cutting approximately one third of jobs at its Güssing production site in response to declining construction activity. The workforce reduction reflects the broader downturn affecting the wood industry, particularly manufacturers dependent on residential and commercial building projects. Weitzer Parkett, known for its engineered and solid wood flooring systems, has not disclosed the exact number of positions affected. The move underscores how persistently weak demand in the construction sector is forcing wood processors and interior fit-out suppliers across Central Europe to adjust capacity and headcount.
