According to the results of 11 months, positive dynamics was observed in the main sectors of the manufacturing industry, with an increase of 5.3%. This was announced during a Government meeting by Vice Minister of Industry and Construction of the Republic of Kazakhstan Olzhas Saparbekov. In the sectors supervised by the Ministry, the volume of production increased by 6.1%.
The growth was achieved due to an increase in the metallurgical industry by 7.2%, mechanical engineering by 6.9%, chemistry by 8.4%, finished metal products by 29.5%, furniture by 12.8%.
For the first time since 2016, the metallurgical industry showed an increase of 7.2%, which was achieved by increasing the production volumes of a number of large enterprises, such as Kazchrome, Evrazkaspianstal, and Kazferstal. In particular, it is necessary to note the ongoing work to restore the full functioning of the Qarm.
Also, the indicators of the ferrous metallurgy industry, where the growth was 10.8%, were positively influenced by the measures taken to load domestic producers with the necessary volume of scrap. The output of cast iron increased by 14.4%, steel by 6.3%, and flat rolled products by 20.4%.
Non-ferrous metallurgy showed an increase of 104.8% due to an increase in copper production by 13.3%, zinc by 0.8% and aluminum by 1.5%.
Mechanical engineering shows growth at the level of 6.9% due to an increase in the output of agricultural machinery by 15.4%, railway transport by 1.6 times, electrical equipment by 8.1%, electronic and optical equipment and computers by 1.7 times.
The production of household appliances increased 4.4 times due to the launch of new production facilities, in 2023 it was 52 thousand, in 11 months of 2024 – 231.1 thousand units.
In the chemical industry, production increased by 8.4%, due to an increase in the production of sulfuric acid by 20%, yellow phosphorus by 13.2%, as well as a planned increase in the design capacity of polypropylene production by 49%.
Also, positive dynamics is observed in the production of finished metal products by 29.5%, furniture by 12.8% and paper by 10.2%.
The combined growth of these industries covers the decline in the production of building materials, rubber and plastic products, and light industry.
In general, in order to maintain and increase the growth dynamics of the manufacturing industry, the Ministry continues to work on providing affordable raw materials to domestic enterprises through the conclusion of agreements with producers of raw materials. To date, 25 agreements have been concluded in non-ferrous metallurgy.
The list of goods, works and services subject to exemption from the national regime is expanded as necessary. Seizures have been established for more than 4.5 thousand goods of domestic production.
