This publication presents the main findings of the Annual Survey on Industrial Production (Prodcom Survey) for the year 2012.
The description of industrial production was based on harmonized methodologies and lists of products compliant with the European Union, according to the Council Regulation (EEC) 3924/91 of 1991.12.19 and Regulation (CE) 912/2004 of 2004.04.29.
The sampling selection and data processing were revised and 2012 data are not directly comparable with 2011. For a better understanding of the results released, we suggest the reading of the Methodological Note, Concepts and Definitions.
