March 2025 was the next con­sec­ut­ive month in a row, that presen­ted an improve­ment of the European foundry industry’s situ­ation. The European Foundry Industry Sen­ti­ment Indic­ator (FISI), con­duc­ted monthly by the European Foundry Fed­er­a­tion, shows signs of an eco­nomic recov­ery. Com­pared to the data from Feb­ru­ary 2025, the FISI increased from 93.4 to 94.6.

Feb­ru­ary 2025 was the second month in a row, which dis­played del­ic­ate signs that the situ­ation of the European foundry industry is begin­ning to improve. The European Foundry Industry Sen­ti­ment Indic­ator (FISI), con­duc­ted monthly by the European Foundry Fed­er­a­tion, shows signs of a slight eco­nomic recov­ery. Com­pared to the data from Janu­ary 2025, the FISI increased from 91.3 to 93.4.

In Janu­ary 2025, the European Foundry Industry Sen­ti­ment Indic­ator (FISI) increased to 91.3 index points, up from 89.0 in Decem­ber 2024. This rise sug­gests a mod­est improve­ment in the industry’s out­look, mov­ing closer to the neut­ral 100-point mark. This devel­op­ment is partly due to pos­it­ive expect­a­tions for the second half of 2025, as busi­nesses anti­cip­ate poten­tial growth and sta­bil­iz­a­tion in demand.
