- Cumulative sales for January through September were 6.9% higher than the same period in 2024, according to Grupo Construya.
- Despite the rebound, volumes remained nearly 8% below the June–July peak, pointing to subdued demand.
- Manufacturers warned that high financial volatility and unstable weather continue to weigh on construction and home renovation activity.
- The index tracks private‑sector input sales and excludes national public works, which media reported were widely stalled through May, and it can differ from INDEC’s ISAC, which showed July at +1.4% year on year and −1.8% month on month seasonally adjusted.
