The average daily output generated by the Dutch manufacturing industry increased 0.4 percent year-on-year in October 2019, after an upwardly revised 1.4 percent rise in the previous month. Production growth was recorded for both machinery (23.8 percent vs 24.0 percent in September) and electrical & electronics (2.5 percent vs 2.1 percent), while declines were seen in repair & installation of machinery (-15.5 percent vs -6.4 percent), metal products (-6.8 percent vs -3.4 percent), chemical products (-5.1 percent vs -7.0 percent), food products (-3.8 percent vs 0.2 percent), rubber & plastic products (-1.1 percent vs -2.4 percent), and transport equipment (-0.3 percent vs -0.4 percent).

The average daily output generated by the Dutch manufacturing industry jumped 1.2 percent year-on-year in September 2019, after an upwardly revised 1.3 percent fall in the previous month. It was the first increase in manufacturing output since February, led by rebounds in food products (1.1 percent vs -0.8 percent in August); electric & electronic products (0.5 percent vs -6.3 percent), while output grew faster for machinery (26.1 percent vs 4.4 percent). In addition, output shrank softer for rubber & plastic products (-3.5 percent vs -5.0 percent). On the other hand, production continued to decline for both chemical products (-7.2 percent vs -8.3 percent)) and transport equipment (-1.8 percent vs -0.1 percent), while that of metal products fell (-3.7 percent vs 0.7 percent).
