Austria’s producer price inflation strengthened in June 2026, with the Producer Price Index (PPI) rising 3.1% year-over-year, according to data updated on 30 July 2026. This marks an acceleration from May 2026, when the PPI increased by 2.8% compared with the same month a year earlier.
The year-over-year comparison indicates that cost pressures at the producer level have continued to build modestly as of June. The “actual” figure reflects the change in producer prices in June 2026 relative to June 2025, while the “previous” figure measures May 2026 against May 2025.
The uptick in PPI suggests a gradual firming of upstream price dynamics that could, over time, influence consumer inflation and corporate margins, depending on how much of the higher input costs are passed through along the supply chain.
