United Kingdom Manufacturing PMI 2008-2018 | Data | Chart | Calendar

The IHS Markit/CIPS UK Manufacturing PMI rose unexpectedly to 53.8 in September 2018 from an upwardly revised 53.0 in the previous month while markets were expecting a decline to 52.5. Both output and new orders grew strongly and a new export business recovered following August's solid contraction. Business optimism also rose in September and employment increased as jobs growth at SMEs offset further cuts at large-scale producers. On the price front, rates of input cost and output charge inflation both strengthened. Manufacturing PMI in the United Kingdom is reported by Markit Economics.
