Industrial use of purchased goods is a survey that is a vital part of the economic statistics. Your information contributes to giving Statistics Sweden a better basis for calculating the gross national product (GDP) for which industry accounts for 20 percent. The information you provide us with helps us to estimate the use of raw materials in the Swedish manufacturing industry.

Instructions

We are interested in the total value of raw materials broken down by goods. We have given a proposal of goods in the form that we think may exist in your industry. If you have previously taken part in the survey, these are the goods that you gave a value for in the last round, marked with an X in the form.

If your enterprise also takes part in the survey Structural Business Statistics, the total cost for raw materials needs to be consistent in both surveys.

Survey timetable

In the beginning of September all selected enterprises will receive a user ID and password through the postal service.

Please reply no later than October 18, 2024.
