  • Value of Production Index grows at a slower rate in January 2017

Value of Production Index (VaPI) for manufacturing grew by 11.6 percent in January 2017 compared with the two-digit growth of 25.9 percent during the same month of the previous year, according to the preliminary results of the Monthly Integrated Survey of Selected Industries (MISSI). Of the 14 major sectors that reflected increases in VaPI, nine sectors exhibited two-digit growth led by wood and wood products with three-digit growth of 118.5 percent. Other significant increases were reported by the following: petroleum products (87.2%), basic metals (54.5%), transport equipment (45.5%), footwear and wearing apparel (44.8%), food manufacturing (28.6%), fabricated metal products (22.3%), machinery except electrical (20.9%) and miscellaneous manufactures (19.3%). Refer to Tables 1-A   and 1.

 

  • Volume of Production Index also accelerates

Volume of Production Index (VoPI) likewise rose in January 2017, posting a year-on-year increment of 9.3 percent. The growth was mainly due to the improved performance of 14 major sectors, with significant increases noted in nine major sectors led by wood and wood products (116.7%). Other major sectors that recorded two-digit growth were basic metals (59.2%), footwear and wearing apparel (50.1%), transport equipment (46.6%), petroleum products (45.3%), food manufacturing (28.6%), fabricated metal products (21.1%), machinery except electrical (14.7%) and textiles (14.4%). Refer to Tables 1-B and 2.

  • Value of Net Sales Index exhibits two-digit growth

Value of Net Sales Index (VaNSI) accelerated as it posted an annual growth of 13.1 percent in January 2017. Twelve of the fifteen major sectors showed significant increases in VaNSI as follows: basic metals (54.6%), wood and wood products (40.6%), petroleum products (26.5%), miscellaneous manufactures (26.1%), transport equipment (21.0%), machinery except electrical (19.5%), textiles (19.2%), furniture and fixtures (18.9%),  food manufacturing (11.8%), rubber and plastic products (11.6%), electrical machinery (10.6%) and non-metallic mineral products (10.4%). Refer to Tables 2-A and 3.

 

  • Volume of Net Sales Index likewise gains

Volume of Net Sales Index (VoNSI) increased, registering a two-digit growth of 10.8 percent in January 2017. Among the 14 major sectors reporting increases, nine significantly influenced the growth, namely: basic metals (58.8%), wood and wood products (40.2%), furniture and fixtures (38.7%), textiles (24.1%), miscellaneous manufactures (21.0%), non-metallic mineral products (19.5%), transport equipment (19.1%), machinery except electrical (16.0%), electrical machinery (13.9%), rubber and plastic products (12.1%) and chemical products (11.6%). Refer to Tables 2-B and 4.

 

  • Average Capacity Utilization Rate in January 2017 is 83.8 percent with petroleum products posting the highest among industries

Average capacity utilization rate in January 2017 for total manufacturing was recorded at 83.8 percent. Fifty-five percent or 11 of the 20 major industries operated at 80 percent and above capacity utilization rates. These were:

  • petroleum products (88.9%)
  • basic metals (88.5%)
  • non-metallic mineral products (86.4%)
  • machinery except electrical (85.3%)
  • food manufacturing (85.2%)
  • chemical products (85.0%)
  • electrical machinery (84.5%)
  • paper and paper products (83.4%)
  • rubber and plastic products (82.9%)
  • wood and wood products (82.8%)
  • printing (80.2%)

 

The proportion of establishments that operated at full capacity (90% to 100%) was recorded more than one-fifth of the total number of establishments (23.7%) in January 2017. About 56.2 percent of the total establishments operated at 70 percent to 89 percent capacity while 20.1 percent of the total establishments operated below 70 percent capacity. Refer to Table B and 6.
