Table explanation
This table presents information about developments in production and turnover in industry (excl. construction), SIC 2008 sections B - E. The data can be divided by a number of branches according to Statistics Netherlands' Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities 2008 (SIC 2008). Developments are presented as percentage changes compared to a previous period and by means of indices.
Developments in turnover and volume are published in two formats. Firstly, in the form of year-on-year changes relative to the same period in the preceding year. These figures are shown both unadjusted and adjusted for calendar effects.
The second format pertains to period-on-period changes, for example quarter-on-quarter. Period-on-period changes are calculated by applying seasonal adjustment.
Data available from: January 2005
Status of the figures:
The monthly figures of 2025 are provisional, the other figures are definitive.
The figures of a calendar year will become definite no later than six months after the end of that calendar year. Until then, the figures in this table will be “provisional” and can still be adjusted as a result of delayed response. Once definitive figures have been published, Statistics Netherlands will only revise the results if significant adjustments and/or corrections are necessary.
Changes as of 10 November 2025
The figures for September 2025 have been added.
The figures for the preceding 2 months may have been revised.
Please note: With each publication, the seasonally adjusted figures for the three months preceding the new reference month are recalculated.
Changes as of 10 June 2025
As an exception, the unadjusted figures for SBI21 and SBI24 have been revised for the entire year 2024.
The calendar and seasonally adjusted figures for the most recent 16 months may have changed due to the annual update of the seasonal adjustment models.
Changes as of 13 May 2025:
In the previous version, a small amount of data was incorrectly displayed. In this version, that has been corrected.
When will new figures be published?
As a rule, monthly statistics are published six to eight weeks after the end of the reporting month. Quarterly statistics are published on the last working day of the second month after the quarter. For production figures see link in section 3.
Description topics
- Index
- Production
- Production by industry is the volume change of gross value added at basic prices. Value added is defined as total production value minus total intermediate consumption value.
- Production
- Production, within the scope of the production index, must be viewed as the volume development of the gross value added at basic prices, not adjusted for working and holidays.
- Seasonally adjusted production
- By adjusting the series for annually recurring patterns, the outcomes become more comparable to the previous months. As a result, observable seasonal effects do not impact month-on-month developments, allowing shifts in revenue growth or decline to be detected more quickly than if no seasonal adjustment were applied.
The outcomes are corrected for both seasonal effects and calendar effects, such as working days, shopping days, leap days, and holidays
- Year-on-year-change
- The development of the production in terms of percentage of a certain period (month, quarter, year) compared with the same period of the previous year.
- Production
- Production by industry is the volume change of gross value added at basic prices. Value added is defined as total production value minus total intermediate consumption value.
- Calender adjusted production
- Each period in a series contains a different number of working or shopping days, leap days, and holidays. By adjusting for these composition differences, outcomes become more comparable over time. A different arrangement of calendar days does not affect year-on-year developments. As a result, the trend in developments becomes purer.
- Turnover
- Turnover refers to the invoice value (excl. VAT) of sales to third parties of goods and services processed within the company.
- Total turnover
- Total turnover covers domestic and international sales.
