Intrakat: Optimism for the future prospects of the construction industry

The management of Intrakat expressed its optimism for the future prospects of the construction industry, in the context of the annual briefing of analysts that took place yesterday. As mentioned, the expected normalization of the cost of implementation of technical projects and the increase of sales from new contracted projects indicate the positive outlook for the next period.

At the same time, as it was pointed out, due to the systematic policy followed by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, the maturation of many large projects has been achieved, a fact that concerns the entire construction sector. At the same time, the administration estimated that the adoption by the ministry of the proposal of the whole construction world for the establishment of a price observatory will permanently solve future distortions. All the above immediate measures combined with the extraordinary revisions of the basic integration materials adopted by the ministry were very important for the continuation of the projects and are expected, according to the administration, to be extended to more materials as a countermeasure to the ongoing uncontrollable inflationary trends. the construction market worldwide.

However, the prolonged impact of the pandemic on economic activity, supply chain disruptions with raw material shortages and, above all, uncontrolled inflationary trends in basic construction materials (iron, copper, concrete, plastic, asphalt, petroleum, etc.) led to a record.
