Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Netherlands Metals Report Q4 2010" report to their offering.
Business Monitor International's Netherlands Metals Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, metals associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on the Netherlands' metals industry.
The Dutch steel industry is set to experience a temporary decline in output in Q410, which will continue into 2011, as the eurozone goes into a period of economic slowdown and domestic demand is slow to recover. However, the sector still has plenty of long-term potential due it its competitiveness and high level of integration and diversification, according to BMIs latest Netherlands Metals Report.
In the first seven months of 2010, the Netherlands crude steel output grew 51.7% y-o-y to 3.67mn tonnes, with production peaking in May at 604,000 tonnes the highest level since September 2008 before falling in June and July, as exports slackened. The industry was still performing at just 80% of prerecession levels during this time. The performance of the Dutch steel industry has been held back by planned repair works at blast furnace No. 7 at Coruss operations in IJmuiden.
