Industrial production in Romania dropped 6.6 percent year-on-year in August 2019, after a downwardly revised 5.0 percent fall in the previous month. This was the fifth straight decline in industrial output and the steepest fall since May 2009, as output shrank faster for both electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (-7.9 percent vs -5.7 percent in July) and mining and quarrying (-8.5 percent vs -7.6 percent). Meanwhile, manufacturing output continued to decline (-4.1 percent vs -4.2 percent), in particular basic metals (-4.6 percent vs -2.9 percent) and wood and wood products (-21.2 percent vs -18.1 percent). On a monthly basis, industrial output rose 0.2 percent in August, following a downwardly revised 1.8 percent fall in July.

Industrial production in Romania dropped 6.4 percent year-on-year in July 2019, after an upwardly revised 4.8 percent fall in the previous month. This was the fourth straight decline in industrial output and the steepest fall since May 2009, as production of electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply output dropped sharply (-4.7 percent vs 1.7 percent in June). Meantime, output continued to decrease for manufacturing (-4.4 percent vs -5.5 percent) in particular due to wood and wood products (-17.4 percent vs -11.5 percent); paper and paper products (-3 percent vs -6.4 percent), and metallurgical industry (-18.6 percent vs -15.8 percent). Also, mining and quarrying fell further (-7.4 percent vs -8.3 percent). On a monthly basis, industrial output shrank 3.3 percent in July, following an upwardly revised 1.8 percent fall in June.

Industrial production in Romania dropped 4.1 percent year-on-year in June 2019, worse than an upwardly revised 1.8 percent fall in the previous month. This was the third straight decline in industrial output and the steepest fall since August 2009, as production of manufacturing declined faster (-5.3 percent vs -2.5 percent in May), in particular due to paper and paper products (-7.1 percent vs 2.2 percent); pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations output (-24.4 percent vs -10.4 percent), computer, electronic, and optical products (-5.3 percent vs 0.2 percent). Also, mining and quarrying output decreased more than a month earlier (-8.1 percent vs -2.5 percent). In addition, electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply output went up softer (2.0 percent vs 4.5 percent in May). On a monthly basis, industrial output shrank 1.0 percent in June, following an upwardly revised 2.1 percent fall in May.

Industrial production in Romania dropped 1.6 percent year-on-year in May 2019, worse than a revised 0.1 percent fall in the previous month. This was the second straight decline in industrial output and the steepest fall since September 2009, as production of manufacturing declined faster (-2.4 percent vs 0.1 percent in April), in particular due to pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations output (-10.1 percent vs 11.9 percent), metal and metal products (-11.7 percent vs -2.1 percent), and metallurgical industry (-6.3 percent vs -1.9 percent). Also, mining and quarrying output decreased (-2.4 percent vs 7.1 percent). Meantime, electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply output rebounded (4.2 percent vs -1.4 percent in April). On a monthly basis, industrial output shrank 1.9 percent in May, following a downwardly revised 0.7 percent rise in April.

Industrial production in Romania increased 0.4 percent year-on-year in April 2019, easing from a 1.5 percent rise in the previous month. This was the weakest growth in industrial output since January, amid a further decline in the production of electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (-1.5 percent vs -8.1 percent in March). Meanwhile, manufacturing growth accelerated slightly (0.5 percent vs 0.4 percent in March), in particular due to chemicals output (5.3 percent vs 5.1 percent), computer, electronic & optical products (7.8 percent vs 7.0 percent), and pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations (15.4 percent vs -8.3 percent). Also, mining and quarrying output rose much faster (7.1 percent vs 1.7 percent). On a monthly basis, industrial output grew 1.1 percent in April, following an upwardly revised 0.4 percent rise in March.

Industrial production in Romania increased 1.5 percent year-on-year in March 2019, easing from a 1.8 percent rise in the previous month. Output expanded faster for manufacturing (3.8 percent from 3.7 percent in February), namely chemical & chemical products (5.2 percent from 2 percent); computer, electronic & optical products (7.1 percent from 2.6 percent) and paper & paper products (12.7 percent from 12.3 percent). Also, production rebounded for mining and quarrying (1.6 percent vs -1.3 percent), particularly coal & lignite (1.6 percent from -1.3 percent). On the other hand, electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply fell more than a month earlier (-8.1 percent vs -3.4 percent). On a monthly basis, industrial output went up 0.3 percent in March, compared to a 0.8 percent rise in February and marking the second straight month increase.
