ANKARA (AA) – The capacity utilization rate of Turkey’s manufacturing industry climbed on a monthly basis in July, according to data released on Monday.

The industry used 76.7% of its capacity this month, up 0.1 percentage point from June, a Central Bank survey showed.

Among the main industrial groups, the highest capacity usage was 80% for intermediate goods, while investment goods posted the lowest rate at 70.2%.

On the sectoral side, the highest capacity usage was 84.7% in the manufacturing of wood and wood/cork products, excluding furniture, while the lowest rate of 64.3% was recorded in leather production.

The figures are based on responses given to its business tendency survey by local units operating in the manufacturing industry, the bank said.
