Germany Construction Industry Report 2025: Output to Decline by 3% This Year, Owing to Rising Construction Material Costs and Falling Building Permits Amid Poor Economic Conditions - Forecast to 2029 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Germany Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis to 2029 (Q3 2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The analyst expects the construction industry in Germany to decline in real terms by 3% in 2025, owing to rising construction material costs and falling building permits amid poor economic conditions.

According to Destatis, the total number of building permits approved fell marginally by 0.1% year-on-year (YoY) in the first six months of 2025, with that of non-residential buildings falling by 8.1% during the same period. Similarly, the construction production index declined by 3.3% YoY in the first six months of 2025, following an overall annual fall of 3.4% in 2024, according to Eurostat. In another setback to the industry's output, the announcement of US tariffs on European imports coupled with structural problems such as a shrinking workforce, and competition from Chinese exports are adding further pressure on the construction industry.

The German construction industry is expected to recover at an average annual growth rate of 3.1% between 2026 to 2029, supported by investments in manufacturing, road construction and renewable energy projects. In March 2025, the German Parliament approved the government's EUR500 billion ($544.8 billion) debt package that will be funneled into infrastructure climate spending, which will be financed through loans for 12 years. Of the total, EUR300 billion ($327 billion) is for various infrastructure projects, EUR100 billion ($109 billion) is for federal states and another EUR100 billion ($109 billion) is for climate-related projects.

The government's focus on investing EUR40 billion ($43.6 billion) to modernize its railway infrastructure by 2027, along with the implementation of several projects like the Stuttgart 21 rail hub redevelopment project and Munich's Second S-Bahn Core Line project will support rail sector's growth over the coming years.
