Italy Construction Market is Expected to Reach USD 354.32 Billion by 2030

Heightened infrastructure investments and proactive governmental measures is driving the Italy construction market growth during the forecast period

The Italy Construction Market size was valued at USD 289.04 billion in 2024, and is projected to grow to USD 311.72 billion in 2025. Additionally, the industry is expected to continue its growth trajectory, reaching USD 354.32 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 2.6% from 2025 to 2030, according to new research by Next Move Strategy Consulting.

The construction market in Italy is undergoing a surge in growth, fueled by a sharp increase in infrastructure investment. According to the National Association of Building Contractors, infrastructure spending rose by 20 percent in 2024, reaching USD 208.5 billion compared to the previous year. This expansion is driven by accelerated disbursements under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, which focuses on upgrading and reinforcing national infrastructure. These developments are playing a central role in propelling the market forward.

However, the construction sector continues to confront major challenges rooted in complex regulatory structures. Infrastructure projects require multiple layers of approvals from government bodies at the municipal, regional, and national levels. These include compliance with zoning laws, environmental impact reviews, building codes, and safety regulations. Delays caused by lengthy approval procedures, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and regulatory inconsistencies between jurisdictions result in extended timelines and increased costs. 

Policy shifts and sudden regulatory amendments create additional barriers, jeopardizing project stability and discouraging investment. Environmental compliance is also a key concern. Oversight authorities such as the Environmental Protection Agency manage areas like air quality, lead containment, waste processing, and water standards. Dedicated compliance assistance centers support adherence to environmental regulations throughout demolition, recycling of infrastructure materials, and disposal of refrigeration and HVAC systems.

On the other hand, the construction industry is advancing through a wide-reaching digital transformation led by the adoption of Building Information Modeling. BIM enables detailed digital planning, simulation, and infrastructure oversight, improving design accuracy, project coordination, and efficient use of resources. Emphasizing this shift, ALLPLAN released Allplan 2024-1 in April 2024 to improve BIM capabilities and refine cloud-based project workflows. The growing integration of artificial intelligence, connected devices, and cloud platforms is strengthening real-time coordination, predictive maintenance, and the overall efficiency of facility operations.
