Prices in euros of industrial raw materials accelerated
In September 2025, prices in euros of industrial raw materials accelerated month on month (+2.6% after +0.4% in August). Over one year, they were up by 5.5%.
Prices of mineral materials increased again (+3.5% after +0.7%). Prices of precious metals sharply accelerated (+8.5% after +0.7%), mainly due to the rise in the price of gold. Prices of non-ferrous metals bounced back (+1.9% after ‑0.2%) and those of ferrous metals continued their rise for the third consecutive month (+2.2% after +2.6%). Year on year, mineral material prices increased by 7.7%, driven by the sharp increase in the prices of precious metals (+33.9%).
Prices of agro-industrial raw materials decreased for the seventh consecutive month (‑3.2% after ‑1.7%). Prices of sawn softwood decreased again (‑10.3% after ‑3.9%), as did those of paper pulp (‑3.1% after ‑1.5%) and tropical sawn wood (‑0.4% after ‑0.1%). On the contrary, prices for hides bounced back (+3.0% after ‑1.0%). Prices for natural textile fibres increased again (+1.9% after +0.4%), as well as those of rubber which continued their rise for the fourth month in a row (+1.4% after +1.9%). Year on year, prices of agro-industrial raw materials fell by 8.0%, mainly because of the decline in the prices for paper pulp (‑17.6%) and natural rubber (‑13.3%).

For further information
The relevant time series and a user guide are available at the bottom of this page.
Crude oil: from 1986, the price of Brent gradually established as a representative reference price of European supplies.
Natural gas: TTF (futures contracts in the Netherlands) is considered as the benchmark market in Europe.
Uranium: the price monitored is that of triuranium octaoxide (U3O8) listed on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Energy: prices of energy are monthly averages.
Indices of non-energy raw materials imported by France: the indices calculated by INSEE are monthly averages of raw material prices, weighted by their share in the French imports of raw materials (2010 = 100).
Strategic materials for the industry: the list of strategic materials monitored is a non-exhaustive selection of raw materials with which the French industry is particularly dependent, especially with regard to the energy transition. This selection is based on the work of the French Geological and Mining Research Bureau (BRGM) on critical and strategic materials.
