8. Page 8 IndexBox Marketing © 2016 www.indexbox.co.uk
Sample Report U.S. Mineral Wool Market. Analysis And Forecast to 2020
Domestic production
The U.S. Census Bureau collects annual information about establishments. Value of
production shipments are primarily based on information obtained from manufacturing
companies with $500 million or more in annual shipments. In order to strengthen the
sample coverage in individual industry categories, the U.S. Census Bureau includes
selected smaller companies. The sources from which companies are identified for
inclusion in the survey panel are the quinquennial economic censuses (manufacturing
sector) and the Annual Survey of Manufactures (ASM). For firms that operate in a
single industry category, the reporting unit typically comprises all operations of the
company. Most large, diversified companies, however, file separate reports for
divisions with significant activity in different industrial areas.
Imports and Exports
The UN Comtrade is used for trade data and is based on the 6-digit Harmonized
System (HS). HS was developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO). The
system covers approximately 5,000 commodity groups, each identified by a six-digit
code. More than 179 countries and economies use this system. The UN Comtrade
database contains more than 3.1 billion trade records starting from 1962.
Consumption and Market Value
In this report, apparent consumption is calculated as Consumption = Production
(Value of Shipments) + Imports – Exports. Variations in inventory are not taken into
account.
The information in this report is as detailed as possible. However, in some cases,
qualitative data is not available on a product or a sub-sector level. In these cases
information on the sector level is provided.
Competitive landscape
The industry snapshots present key statistics from three Census Bureau economic
programs, as well as per capita ratios using data from Population Estimates. Historical
data are not shown when they are not comparable due to NAICS changes. See
Definitions and Comparability in the Industry Statistics Portaland the
Snapshot FAQs for more information.
The 2012 Economic Census was released on a flow basis so some data may not yet be
available, and data for some industries are only available for the U.S. and by State.
For more information, see the release schedule and the GeographicCoverage Tables.
