Italy’s industrial turnover rose by 0.6% month-on-month in February 2026, following a downwardly revised 0.2% fall in the previous month. Foreign sales rebounded (1.9% vs -1.6% in January), more than offsetting a small drop in domestic sales (-0.2% vs 0.6%). On a yearly basis, industrial turnover, adjusted for calendar effects, increased by 0.5%, after a downwardly revised 0.8% decline in January, supported by renewed growth in both domestic (0.4% vs -0.7%) and foreign (0.7% vs -1.1%) sales. By industrial grouping, annual gains were recorded in capital goods (2.0%) and intermediate goods (1.6%), while consumer goods were broadly stable (0.1%). In contrast, energy turnover fell sharply by 11.3%. Meanwhile, turnover in the services sector edged down 0.1% month-on-month after a 0.7% increase in January, dragged mainly by a decline in wholesale trade (-0.2%).
