Poland’s manufacturing sector showed a marginal improvement in April 2026, with the S&P Global Manufacturing PMI ticking up to 48.80 from 48.70 in March 2026, according to data updated on 4 May 2026.

Despite the slight uptick, the index remains below the 50-point threshold that separates expansion from contraction, signaling that manufacturing activity in Poland continues to contract, albeit at a slightly slower pace than in the previous month.

The latest reading suggests that while conditions in the sector may be stabilizing, a sustained recovery has yet to take hold, and manufacturers are still grappling with a challenging operating environment.
