It was down by 3.6 per cent year on year (YoY) in June 2025 after adjustment for calendar effects.

The less volatile quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) comparison showed that production in the second quarter (Q2) this year declined by 1 per cent, and thus also dropped to the same low level it last reached in the first half of 2020.

After revision of the provisional results, production decreased slightly by 0.1 per cent MoM in May 2025 (provisional figure was plus 1.2 per cent).

Energy production recorded a growth of 3.1 per cent MoM in June 2025.

Production drops were reported in all three major groups. The production of consumer goods fell by 5.6 per cent MoM, capital goods production by 3.2 per cent MoM and intermediate goods production by 0.6 per cent MoM.

Compared with June 2024, production in industry excluding energy and construction was down 4.7 per cent after calendar adjustment, a Destatis release said.

Production in energy-intensive industrial branches declined by 2.2 per cent MoM in June 2025 after elimination of seasonal and calendar effects. The QoQ comparison showed that production in energy-intensive industrial branches in Q2 2025 was down by 2.3 per cent.

Adjusted for calendar effects, production in energy-intensive industrial branches decreased by 7.4 per cent YoY in June 2025.
