Singapore’s manufacturing production climbed 10.1% year-on-year in March 2026, accelerating from an upwardly revised 3.3% rise in the previous month. It marked the strongest growth since December 2025, as electronics output surged to 30% from 23.4% in February, led by semiconductors and infocomms, and consumer electronics. Moreover, production rebounded in precision engineering (14% vs -5.5%), transport engineering (2% vs -3.2%), and general manufacturing industries (7.6% vs -4.9%). Output declined at a softer pace in biomedical manufacturing (-14.3% vs -25.9%). In contrast, output continued to fall in chemicals (-16% vs -4.8%), weighed down mainly by petroleum and petrochemicals. On a monthly basis, manufacturing output rose 4.7% after a downwardly revised 1.2% drop in February, marking its strongest monthly gain since October 2025. Over the first quarter of 2026, manufacturing output increased 7.9% compared with the same period a year earlier. source: Singapore Economic Development Board

Singapore Manufacturing Output at 3-Month High
Singapore’s manufacturing production climbed 10.1% year-on-year in March 2026, accelerating from an upwardly revised 3.3% rise in the previous month. It marked the strongest growth since December 2025, as electronics output surged to 30% from 23.4% in February, led by semiconductors and infocomms, and consumer electronics. Moreover, production rebounded in precision engineering (14% vs -5.5%), transport engineering (2% vs -3.2%), and general manufacturing industries (7.6% vs -4.9%). Output declined at a softer pace in biomedical manufacturing (-14.3% vs -25.9%). In contrast, output continued to fall in chemicals (-16% vs -4.8%), weighed down mainly by petroleum and petrochemicals. On a monthly basis, manufacturing output rose 4.7% after a downwardly revised 1.2% drop in February, marking its strongest monthly gain since October 2025. Over the first quarter of 2026, manufacturing output increased 7.9% compared with the same period a year earlier.

Singapore Manufacturing Output Falls for 1st Time in 6 Months
Singapore’s manufacturing production fell by 0.1% year-on-year in February 2026, reversing a 12.9% surge in the previous month. This marked the first month of decline in manufacturing activity since August last year, driven by weaker output across nearly all sub-sectors except electronics. Biomedical manufacturing (-27.3% vs -33.6% in January) recorded the sharpest contraction, reflecting shifts in pharmaceutical output (-18% vs -44.8%) and softer demand for medical devices (-30.4% vs -28.1%). General manufacturing (-5.7% vs -2.6%) also declined, as well as chemicals (-4.6% vs 2.3%), precision engineering (-3.5% vs 14%), and transport engineering (-0.2% vs 25.2%). Meanwhile, the electronics cluster (13.7% vs 34%) remained the key outperformer, driven in part by AI-related demand. On a monthly basis, manufacturing output decreased by 7.2% in February, slipping from a 2% rise in the preceding period.

Singapore Manufacturing Output Exceeds Forecasts
Singapore's manufacturing production surged 16.6% year-on-year in January 2026, accelerating from an upwardly revised 10.9% gain and surpassing market expectations of 11% growth. Electronics output soared to 44% from 19.6% in December, largely driven by a sharp expansion in semiconductors (52% vs 20.5%). Overall growth was also supported by stronger performances in chemicals (2.3% vs 1.3%) and precision engineering (13.2% vs 8.1%). On the other hand, production contracted sharply in biomedical manufacturing (-33.1% vs -10.9%), while growth slightly eased in transport engineering (25.2% vs 26.4%). In addition, output in general manufacturing industries fell (-2.6% vs 0.4%). On a monthly basis, output rose 5.3%, rebounding from a 13.3% fall in the previous month. Excluding biomedical manufacturing, manufacturing production climbed to 24.1% in January 2026, from 13.1% in the prior month.
