Outlook 2026: Construction Investment Set to Grow by 4.8%

A Positive Horizon for Construction

According to the latest report from the Chilean Chamber of Construction (CChC), the sector is preparing for a cycle of recovery and sustained growth. Projections indicate that investment in construction will increase by 2.2% this year, setting the stage for a solid 4.8% in 2026.

Key Growth Factors

This upturn in activity is mainly explained by two driving factors:

• Productive Infrastructure: A renewed impulse in mining and energy projects that will drive demand for construction services.
• Public Housing: State plans to reduce the housing deficit will continue to be a major engine for the industry.

What does this mean for your home project?

A growing sector usually brings greater availability of materials and technology, but it can also imply an increase in demand for skilled labor. Thinking ahead is key.
