July 2024. Provisional data

Main results

  • The annual rate of the Industrial Production Index stood at -0.4% in the seasonally and calendar adjusted series and at 4.4% in the original series.
  • The monthly variation of the Industrial Production Index was -0.4%, if seasonal and calendar effects are eliminated.

The Industrial Production Index adjusted for seasonal and calendar effects presented in July a variation of -0.4% with respect to the same month of the previous year. This rate was 0.6 points lower than that registered in June.

The original IPI series experienced an annual change of 4.4%. This rate was 8.7 points higher than that of the month of June.

Data revisions and updates

INE has today updated the IPI data for the last two months. In the case of the series adjusted, the series have been reviewed from the beginning, following the INE standard. All results of this operation are available on INEBase.

Methodological note

The Industrial Production Index (IPI) is a short-term indicator that measures the monthly evolution of the productive activity of the industrial branches, excluding construction, contained in the National Classification of Economic Activities 2009 (CNAE-2009). It therefore investigates the activities included in sections B, C, D and division 36: Water collection, treatment and supply, from section E of the CNAE-2009.

The IPI measures the joint evolution of quantity and quality, eliminating the influence of prices.

Type of survey:
monthly continuous survey.
Base year:
2021.
Population scope:
industrial establishments whose main activity is included in sections B, C, D and division 36 of the CNAE-2009.
Geographical scope:
the entire national territory.
Sample size:
11,500 industrial establishments and more than 1,100 products.
Collection method:
internet (IRIA system), e-mail, fax, telephone or postal mail.

More information is available in the methodology and in the standardised methodological report.
