Netherlands Construction Industry Report 2025: Output to Expand by 1.7% this Year, Supported by Rising Non-Residential Spending and Investments in Manufacturing & Transportation - Forecast to 2029 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "The Netherlands Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis to 2029 (H1 2025)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The construction industry in the Netherlands is expected to expand in real terms by 1.7% in 2025, supported by rising spending in the non-residential construction sector, coupled with investment in manufacturing and transportation projects.

The Dutch construction industry is however expected to face headwinds in the short term due to rising construction costs and a decline in building permits. According to Statistics Netherlands (CBS) and the Land Registry, the housing cost for the existing houses increased by 10.9% year-on-year (YoY), in the first three months of 2025, followed by an annual growth of 8.7% in 2024.

In another setback to the industry's output, in March 2025, a Dutch construction company Bouwend Nederland reported that housing investment projects worth EUR138 billion ($150.4 billion) are on hold due to the nitrogen crisis. The industry's output in 2025 is also likely to be affected by uncertainty caused by the US trade war, which is likely to weigh on investor confidence and spending. The US's tariffs on European goods are also expected to negatively impact Dutch exports and business sentiment.

Over the remainder of the forecast period, the construction industry is expected to register an annual average growth of 2.8% between 2026 and 2029, supported by investments in the industrial, infrastructure, and residential sectors, coupled with the government's focus on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and becoming a net zero carbon emissions economy by 2050.

In line with this, in February 2025, the European Commission approved the second payment request of EUR1.2 billion ($1.3 billion) to the Netherlands under the EU's Recovery and Resilience Facility, which is a part of the broader NextGenerationEU initiative. This second installment of the Netherlands' EUR5.4 billion ($5.9 billion) recovery plan was granted after the country successfully met 15 milestones and six targets, including reforms in environmental taxation, investments in green hydrogen, and digitalization of healthcare systems.

The funding aims to support the Dutch economy transition toward a greener economy, construct 90,000 housing units by 2030, and develop the healthcare sector. Forecast period growth will also be supported by public and private sector investments in transport infrastructure and the automobile sector, aligning with the government's goal to achieve 100% zero-emission vehicles (ZEV) in new car sales by 2030. The government also plans to invest EUR25 billion ($26.5 billion) to build new roads by 2028.
