In June 2026, prices for energy and imported raw materials fell back Prices of energy and imported raw materials - June 2026
In June 2026, the price of oil in euros plummeted (‑17.3% month on month after +1.8% in May) because of the easing of tensions in the Middle-East. That of gas fell back for same reasons (‑4.9% after +5.0%). Prices in euros of imported raw materials (excluding energy) fell back over the month (‑2.4% after +1.7%) but increased over one year (+5.7%). Prices in euros of industrial raw materials also fell back over one month (‑3.8% after +2.1%) but increased sharply over one year (+25.6%). Prices of strategic raw materials moved in scattered order over the month but rose sharply over one year. Finally, prices in euros of food commodities fell back over one month (‑1.0% after +1.3%) and decreased over the year (‑8.7%).
An error was detected in the data from the June 2026 publication regarding the month of May. Hence, the aggregate price indices for imported raw materials (excluding energy), energy prices as well as prices of strategic industrial raw materials, were revised for the month of May. These revisions follow the correction of a software issue that affected data collection for part of the month and was detected late.

Prices in euros of industrial raw materials fell back
In June 2026, prices in euros of industrial raw materials fell back over the month (‑3.8% after +2.1% in May). Over one year, they were strongly upwards (+25.6%).
Prices of mineral materials fell back (‑4.4% after +2.2%). Prices of precious metals continued to decrease (‑8.3% after ‑1.4%). Those of ferrous metals fell back (‑5.9% after +2.6%), as well as those of non-ferrous metals (‑1.9% after +3.8%). Year on year, mineral material prices increased sharply (+29.4%), driven by those of precious metal (+36.7%), of non-ferrous metal (+35.4%) and, to a lesser extent, by those of ferrous metals (+10.7%).
Prices of agro-industrial raw materials increased again over one month (+0.8% after +1.2%). Prices of sawn softwood accelerated (+7.1% after +0.7%), while those of rubber slowed down (+2.2% after +7.9%), as well as those of tropical sawn wood (+0.2% after +0.7%). Those of hides were nearly stable (+0.1% after +0.2%). Conversely, prices of paper pulp fell back (‑2.3% after +0.1%), as well as those of natural textile fibres (‑2.2% after +4.8%). Year on year, prices of agro-industrial raw materials increased (+1.9%), but with significant disparities among them: prices of rubber skyrocketed (+39.1%) and those of natural textile fibres increased sharply (+28.0%). Those surges were offset by the decreases in prices of paper pulp (‑3.8%), of hides (‑4.7%) and of tropical sawn wood (‑1.6%), the latter represent a larger part of the index.

Revisions
In May 2026, most series were revised compared to the initial publication (in June) due to an error in data collection. Thus, the monthly change in the price index in euros for food materials is revised downward by 0.4 points to +1.3%, while that for industrial raw materials is revised upward by 0.7 points to +2.1%. Overall, the monthly change in the price index in euros for imported raw materials (excluding energy) is revised upward by 0.2 points to +1.7%.
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.
