The AIB Ireland Construction PMI declined to 46.7 in November 2025, down from October’s four-month high of 48.1, signaling the seventh consecutive monthly contraction in the sector. The latest reading came as new orders continued to drop, with reductions in construction activity registered across all three categories. Commercial activity recorded a renewed and solid decline, while civil engineering posted the sharpest fall. Meanwhile, work on housing projects decreased for the seventh consecutive month, but at the slowest pace since June, and the weakest decline among the categories covered by the report.
