GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM) - Growth in consumption of office furniture is predicted by BIFMA International to level off at around 9 percent during 2012, but the consumption number reflects both U.S. imports and exports. The shipments number pertains directly to U.S. production - and that prediction is flat, at best.

"The forecast is calling for flat to negative 2 percent shipment growth (in 2012), so that is a concern, if that does come to pass," said Tom Reardon, executive director of BIFMA.
"No growth to slightly negative growth will not be welcomed by the industry," he added.
