Industrial production in Finland rose by 4.5% year-on-year in July 2026, marking the strongest growth since March and accelerating from a downwardly revised 4.4% gain in the previous month.

Meanwhile, mining output dropped 13% after rising 4.8% in the previous month, while production growth softened for electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (3.1% vs 6.7%).
