Prodcom is the European Union's standard classification of production statistics. It contains almost 4500 products, of which approximately half are produced and/or sold by Irish industrial enterprises. Its scope relates to the NACE activity codes from 13 to 36 excluding 23. Confidential totals are denoted on the file by the value -999,999. Details of EU
aggregates and individual member state data can be found on the Europa website at

Over half of Irish product sales are classified in the following five NACE classes
There is a direct link between this classification of products and the classification used in foreign trade statistics, the Combined Nomenclature. It is thus possible to combine production and trade data to derive related indicators such as consumption.
