Renovate smartly, the easy way
There has been a downward trend in the Austrian construction industry for years. This is weakened by increasing renovations in private and commercial residential buildings.
A trend that DOMOFERM also supports with a variety of solutions for old doors: whether a simple fire protection door or a modern security door, with DOMOFERM you have the option of replacing any door with a new one cost-effectively, quickly and easily. Numerous subsidies also simplify access to necessary renovations.
Declining development in residential construction weakened by renovations
After years of good orders in the construction industry, new construction has continuously declined in both private and commercial residential construction. There have been signs of an end to the construction boom since 2020. However, in 2022, residential construction activity reached a new low: at around 14 percent below the average annual development, Statistics Austria data recorded the third lowest result since 2010.
Compared to 2021, almost 23 percent fewer apartments were approved for construction. According to current forecasts, this trend will continue. The main triggers are high energy prices, delivery bottlenecks, rising loan interest rates and labor shortages resulting from numerous crises. According to Euroconstruct, the general downward trend in the Austrian construction industry has been mitigated for some time by the expansion of renovations.
