The Construction in Finland - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2029 (H1 2025) report provides detailed market analysis, information, and insights into Finland’s construction industry, including:

  • Finland’s construction industry's growth prospects by market, project type and construction activity
  • Critical insight into the impact of industry trends and issues, as well as an analysis of key risks and opportunities in Finland’s construction industry
  • Analysis of the mega-project pipeline, focusing on development stages and participants, in addition to listings of major projects in the pipeline.
The analyst expects Finland’s construction industry to expand by 4.2% in 2025, supported by increased civil engineering activity, combined with investments in renewable energy, transportation, industrial and office projects. According to preliminary data released by Statistics Finland, their civil engineering construction production index grew by 9.2% year on year (YoY) in the first eleven months of 2024, preceded declining by 2.7% in 2023. Moreover, the civil engineering construction turnover index grew by 4.6% YoY in the first eleven months of 2024, preceded declining by 5.8% in 2023. Furthermore, in January 2025, the Finnish government approved the budget plan for 2025, with expenditure totaling EUR88.8 billion ($94.4 billion) and a revenue of EUR76.6 billion ($81.5 billion). Hence, increased fiscal stimulus is expected to drive construction growth across 2025.

Over the remainder of the forecast period, the construction industry is expected to register annual average growth of 3.4% between 2026 and 2029, supported by the government’s focus on the development of infrastructure, as well as energy and utilities construction projects. In December 2024, the European Investment Fund (EIF) announced that it would provide a syndicate of loans to Finnish companies totaling up-to EUR437 million ($464.7 million); specifically, these loans will support green energy and digitalization projects for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Additionally, the guarantees are backed by the European Commission's Invest EU program, which aims to mobilize over EUR370 billion ($393.5 billion) in public and private investment between 2021 and 2027 to support EU policy priorities, including the green and digital transitions. Moreover, the National Transport System Plan for 2021-2032, under which, the government plans to spend EUR20 billion ($21.3 billion) to upgrade the country’s transport infrastructure over the 12-year period, with EUR6 billion ($6.4 billion) spending towards infrastructure network development projects.
