According to the Chairman of the Metal and Electricity sectors at the Manufacturers’ Association, sales of the various metal and electricity related industrial sectors fell by 20% in 2009 (from 2008, when sales reached NIS 70 billion) due to the significant slow-down in the local economy, affected by the global financial and economic crisis.

The above industries contracting trend was evident in 2008 after the long and significant growth trend since 2004 (in 2007 the sectors’ overall sales reached a climex of NIS 75.7 billion). The sectors have been witnessing a gradual recovery that started in mid 2009, into 2010, paralell to the improvement in the global markets.

 

Export of products of Basic Metals by the local industry rose in 2010 by 38.7% from 2009, reaching US$ 2,369.8 million, while export of Machinery & Equipment increased by 8.1%, with sales for export of US$ 2,518.9 million.

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), import of metals raw materials to the local industries in 2010 showed an increasing trend, after a contraction in 2009 in view of the local and global slow-down in economy. Import of raw materials divided as follows: Iron and Steel - US$ 1,802.7 million (33.6% rise, after 38% decrease in 2009 from 2008), Precious Metals - US$ 143.9 million (22.5% up, after 35.3% decrease in 2009), Non-ferrous Metals - US$ 822.2 million (40.7% rise, after 44.3% decrease in 2009 from 2008).

 

CBS data reveals that gross domestic investment in machinery and other equipment for the manufacturing industry (both from import and domestic production) for 2010 rose by some 10% from 2009 (when it fell by 19% from 2008). Total gross domestic investment in machinery and other equipment from import alone, rose by 12% (after falling in 2009 by almost 24%).

 

CBS data on investment in imported machinery and other equipment for the manufacture of metal products in 2010 was NIS 1,131 million (37% up from 2009, after 31% decrease in 2009 from 2008).
