The inflation rate for the Retail Price Index (RPI) in the United Kingdom was 4.4 percent in June 2025, up from 4.3 percent in the previous month. From 2021 onwards, prices in the UK rose rapidly, with the RPI inflation rate peaking at 14.2 percent in October 2022. Although inflation fell in subsequent months, it wasn't until July 2023 that inflation fell below double digits, and as of late 2024, the RPI rate was still above three percent. The CPI and CPIH While the retail price index is still a popular method of calculating inflation, the consumer price index (CPI) is the current main measurement of inflation in the UK. There is also an additional price index, which includes some extra housing costs, known as the Consumer Price Index including homer occupiers' costs (CPIH) index, which is seen by the UK's Office of National Statistics as the official inflation rate. As of December 2024, the CPI inflation rate stood at 2.5 percent, while the CPIH rate was 3.5 percent. Core inflation down in 2024 Another way of measuring inflation is to strip out the volatility of energy and food prices and look at the underlying core inflation rate. As of December 2024, this was 3.2 percent, slightly higher than the overall CPI rate, but more aligned with the overall figure than it was in 2022 and 2023. When inflation peaked at 11.2 percent in October 2022, for example, core inflation stood at just 6.5 percent. After energy prices in 2023 fell relative to 2022, the overall inflation rate in the UK declined quite rapidly, with core inflation overtaking the overall rate in July 2023. During the most recent period of high inflation, core inflation peaked at 7.1 percent in May 2023, and while taking longer to fall than the overall figure, has generally been declining since then.

European furniture manufacturing revenue is slated to grow at a compound annual rate of 2.7% over the five years through 2025. A recent turbulent economic climate has weighed on furniture manufacturers' growth levels. Challenges initially stemmed from the COVID-19 pandemic but worsened with inflationary pressures. Macroeconomic headwinds weakened demand for new construction projects across most European countries in 2023 and 2024, reducing the number of new spaces that required furnishing. Businesses have increasingly preserved cash and opted to postpone or cancel significant construction projects, especially after interest rates were hiked to help combat soaring inflation, causing the cost of borrowing to spike. This dampened demand for furniture manufacturers, causing revenue growth to stagnate. Inflationary pressures also weakened disposable incomes and caused people to cut their discretionary spending, limiting furniture purchases. In 2025, revenue is expected to rise slightly by 0.9% to €175.8 billion. Revenue growth is supported by the improving global economic climate, easing inflation and falling interest rates. This is helping to lift consumer confidence, albeit the cost of living pressures are still on the mind of consumers and this is helping to lift spending on furniture slowly in faster-growing European countries like Spain. Construction activity is also increasing in Spain and Eastern Europe, with building permits on the rise again. More commercial and residential buildings will help boost furniture demand from new homeowners and corporate companies looking to fit out their offices. Still, in countries like Germany, the construction sector has a long road to recovery, which is continuing to subdue revenue growth in 2025. Over the five years through 2030, revenue is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 4.7% to reach €221.7 billion. The European economy is forecast to continue to improve as inflation eases, prompting central banks to lower interest rates. As interest rates fall, the cost of borrowing will follow suit, driving up the number of people meeting the affordability criteria for mortgages and spurring new construction activity from housebuilders, which will create a greater need for new furniture. Businesses will also be more likely to undertake significant construction projects and buy new furniture, creating more revenue opportunities for furniture makers.

Revenue is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 2.7% over the five years through 2025 to £47.9 billion, including estimated growth of 1.1% in 2025. The industry's revenue prospects are closely linked to economic cycles that influence construction activity in residential, commercial and infrastructure markets, which are crucial for manufacturers' income opportunities. In recent years, cement, lime and plaster manufacturers have faced several economic challenges, including high inflation, supply chain disruptions and aggressive interest rate hikes by central banks across Europe. These factors have substantially affected construction activity, dampening manufacturers' order books. Since COVID-19 hit, inflationary pressures have picked away at cement, lime and plaster manufacturers’ profitability. Rising prices were brought about by surges in demand amid the gradual reopening of the economy, coinciding with disruptions to supply chains. In 2022, inflation worsened, triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine towards the start of the year, which compounded supply chain disruptions. Although proving less volatile than other building materials in 2022, cement prices picked up in 2023 despite falling energy costs, as cement is slower to react to market conditions than other building materials. The inflationary environment also resulted in central banks ramping up interest rates, raising the cost of borrowing and weighing on construction activity. Although inflationary pressures are beginning to ease, the industry still faces economic uncertainty as interest rates remain elevated despite recent reductions. Ongoing supply chain disruptions, exacerbated by US tariffs on trade, are anticipated to raise costs and hinder cement and plaster sales. Cement, lime and plaster manufacturing revenue is forecast to grow at a compound annual rate of 5.1% over the five years through 2030 to €61.3 billion. Construction activity is set to pick up as inflationary pressures subside, letting central banks lower interest rates, which will boost investor sentiment. Manufacturers will also be able to capitalise on the growing demand for sustainability, allowing them to exploit value-added opportunities. However, the R&D they’ll need to put into green products and processes will dent profitability in the short term, though will drive revenue growth over the long term.
