European Foundry Industry Sen­ti­ment improves in July 2026, but recov­ery remains uneven. FISI rises to 96.0 as Euro­zone man­u­fac­tur­ing con­tin­ues to expand.
The European foundry industry recor­ded a fur­ther improve­ment in busi­ness sen­ti­ment in July 2026. The European Foundry Industry Sen­ti­ment Indic­ator (FISI), pub­lished monthly by EFF – European Foundry Fed­er­a­tion. increased to 96.0 points, con­firm­ing the gradual sta­bil­isa­tion observed in recent months. Nev­er­the­less, the indic­ator remains below the bench­mark level of 100, show­ing that the recov­ery of the European foundry sec­tor is still fra­gile and highly uneven across indi­vidual cast­ing segments.
