All the main indicators of the construction sector are growing, from the real estate market to investments in construction and public works, with the interventions related to the Superbonus 110% in the lead, which increased even in the height of summer, reaching, in value, 5.685 billion euros, 2 of which in the months of July and August only. From the data processed by Ance – and illustrated today on the occasion of the press conference for the presentation of the second edition of SAIE Bari, the Construction Fair to be held from 7 to 9 October in the pavilions of the Nuova Fiera del Levante, led by Alessandro Ambrosi – a trend with many positive signs for the supply chain.
The leverage effect of 110%
Starting with the decisive leverage effect ensured by the state incentives of the Superbonus 110% which, as of August, reached the ceiling of 37,128 interventions, for an amount equal to almost 5.7 billion. The share relating to condominium buildings benefiting from the measure increased, which now account for 46.6% of the total value, compared to 33.3% for single-family buildings and 20.4% for independent real estate units.

The boom of incentives
The 110% incentive boom is one of the factors fueling the positive construction trend. The others concern the residential real estate market which, which grew in the first quarter of 2021 by 17.1% compared to the same period of 2019, is favoring investments in construction, which increased, in the same period, by 54% compared to a year ago and by 12. , 8% on the same quarter of 2019. Production levels should therefore increase by 8.6% at the end of 2021.
Public works are on the rise
Public works are also on the rise: last July the calls for tenders increased in number (+ 3.7%) and in the amounts banned (+ 4.2%) compared to the same month of 2020. Access to incentives of 110 % obviously has a diversified impact on the national territory with some surprises. Thus, while in the North Lombardy is in the first positions (5,116 interventions for a value of 858 million), followed by Veneto (4,628 for 559 million), Lazio (3,704 for 560), Tuscany (3,704 for 398) and Emilia-Romagna ( 2,861 per 464), Sicily (2,751 per 397) do very well in the south, followed by Puglia (2,372 per 326), Campania (2,447 per 469) and Calabria (1,638 per 249). In Puglia then – as emerged in the press conference – the incidence of beneficiary condominiums is far below the national 46.6%.
Bonerba (Ance puglia): the region must grow
“In the region – explains Nicola Bonerba, president of Ance Puglia – the beneficiary condominiums are only 10% and must absolutely grow to take advantage of this measure which must be accompanied by useful interventions to overcome the lack of materials, the increases – for example a iron rod, between November and July 2021, increased by 200% – and the labor deficit, although employment in the sector is recovering ». To preserve the 110% leverage effect for the supply chain, it is essential to make it systemic with an extension at least until 2023, avoiding any short-term effervescence. «The supply chain – explained Ivo Nardella, president of Senaf which organizes SAIE Bari – is finally experiencing a moment of growth, but if it does not start the renewal of the sector, it is ephemeral. This is why SAIE Bari will show operators the technologies and useful solutions for building and plant engineering ». A specific in-depth study for operators will be dedicated to the Superbonus on 7 October, the first day of SAIE 2021 which counts 250 companies present at the fair, 40 trade associations involved and 15,000 professionals expected.
