Producer price inflation at the factory gate eased in the United Kingdom in February, underscoring a further moderation in cost pressures across the industrial sector. Year-over-year PPI Output growth slowed to 1.7% in February 2026, down from 2.5% in January 2026.
Both figures are measured on a year-over-year basis, with the “actual” data comparing February 2026 output prices to February 2025, and the “previous” data comparing January 2026 to January 2025. The latest update, released on 25 March 2026, suggests that price growth at the producer level is losing momentum, a development that could help temper consumer inflation in the months ahead if the trend continues.
