Eurozone Industrial Output Growth Accelerates in March 2025Brussels, 15 May (ONA) — Eurozone industrial output growth more than
doubled in March 2025 driven by increases in capital and durable consumer
goods production, data from Eurostat showed today.
Industrial production increased 2.6% on a monthly basis, following a
monthly growth of 1.1% in February 2025.
Output was expected to climb 1.7%. The increase was largely driven by
the rebound in durable consumer goods output, with production rising
3.1% following a 2.0% fall.
Capital goods output advanced at a faster pace of 3.2% after rising
0.8%.
Growth in non-durable goods production improved to 2.3% from 2.1% and
intermediate goods output growth held steady at 0.6%.
However, energy production declined 0.5%.
Year-on-year, industrial production logged an increase of 3.6% after
rising 1.0% in February 2025.
This was also better than forecast of 2.5%.
