Nevertheless, output was barely stable in the « other manufacturing » (–0.1%)…
The output slightly decreased in the manufacture of rubber or plastics products, and other non-metallic mineral products (-1,2%), in the manufacture of chemicals and chemical products (-1.4%), in the manufacture of wood and paper products; printing and reproduction of recorded media (-0.7%) and in the manufacture of basic metals and fabricated metal products (-0.2%).
However, it increased in the “other manufacturing, repair and installation of machinery” (+1.8%), in the manufacture of basic pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations (+0.6%) and in the manufacture of textile (+0.8%).
… as well as in the manufacture of transport equipment (-0.1%)
The output decreased in the manufacture of motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers (-2.2%).
In the other hand, it increased in the manufacture of other transport equipment (+2.5%).
Revisions : -0.11 point in March
In March 2011, the manufacturing output decreased by 1.1%
The revisions are due to the new calculation of the SA-WDA.
