Price intentions across UK business are heading up, and manufacturers are barely more confident than in June. This is a survey of plans, not actual increases, but resin and coatings suppliers rarely absorb energy costs for long.
UK building work is shrinking faster, yet input costs are still rising, so weaker demand isn't pulling material prices down. Expect suppliers to hold their price lists this winter, even as order books thin out.
For green energy and industrial contractors, the diesel rise could feed into site plant, crane and haulage costs on wind and solar jobs, so fixed-price tenders may need a fuel clause. Continued reliance on gas generation means power costs for energy-intensive resin and fibre production could stay volatile and may show up in composite price notices.
