2025年8月,法国HCOB建筑业采购经理人指数从7月份的十个月低点39.7升至46.7,表明该行业的低迷明显缓解。在三大类建筑活动中,住房和商业建筑的收缩速度都较慢,而土木工程是一个突出的优势领域,在过去三个月内第二次扩张。新订单继续下降,尽管下降速度是自4月以来最疲软的。然而,随着采购量和就业人数的显著下降,削减成本仍然是一个突出的主题。失业率是自2020年5月以来的最高水平。尽管对投入的需求减弱,但供应商的表现进一步恶化,平均交付周期在18个月内最大程度地延长。展望未来,市场情绪仍然悲观,受访公司预计一年后的活动水平会降低。
The HCOB Construction PMI in France rose to 46.7 in August 2025, from July’s ten-month low of 39.7, signaling a notable easing in the sector’s downturn. Across the three main categories of construction activity, housing and commercial building both recorded slower rates of contraction, while civil engineering stood out as an area of strength, expanding for the second time in the past three months. New orders continued to fall, though the pace of decline was the softest since April. Cost-cutting remained a prominent theme, however, with purchasing volumes and employment decreasing markedly. The rate of job losses was the steepest since May 2020. Despite weaker demand for inputs, supplier performance deteriorated further, with average lead times lengthening to the greatest extent in 18 months. Looking ahead, sentiment remained downbeat, with surveyed firms expecting activity levels to be lower in a year’s time.
