Metal Structure Manufacturing in Germany Industry Data and Analysis
The manufacturers of metal constructions can look back on a volatile business development over the last five years. At the beginning of the last five-year period, demand for metal constructions increased thanks to the strong domestic economy and the construction boom in Germany. Since 2020, however, the industry has been operating in a difficult market environment with volatile raw material and energy prices as well as supply bottlenecks. This is due to the economic recession that set in after the COVID pandemic and the decline in demand from industry and the construction sector. The rapid rise in global market prices for energy sources and raw materials and the ECB's interest rate hike to combat inflation have further exacerbated the situation within the industry.
