The total index of producer and import prices fell by 0.1% in June 2017 compared with the previous month, reaching the level of 99.7 points (December 2015 = 100 basis). The decline is mainly due to lower prices for scrap and wood products. Compared with June 2016, the price level of the total supply of domestic and imported products fell by 0.1 per cent.
This is evident from the figures of the Federal Statistical Office (FSO). The decline in the producer price index compared to the previous month was due in particular to the lower prices for scrap, as well as products for building carpentry and interior construction.
