           Monthly Statistics of Building Materials and Components – May 2022
           Introduction
           This commentary accompanies the latest Monthly Statistics of Building Materials and 
                                                                                                             st
           Components data tables, published on the BEIS building materials web page on 1  June 2022. 
           It provides an overview of recent trends in the data presented in the tables. 
           The data tables present the latest detailed information on selected building materials and 
           components. They cover the following building materials statistics:
                  Construction material price indices (monthly, UK) 
                  Sand and gravel sales (quarterly, GB*) 
                  Slate production, deliveries and stocks (quarterly, GB) 
                  Cement and clinker production, deliveries and stocks (annual, GB) 
                  Bricks production, deliveries and stocks (monthly, GB*) 
                  Concrete building blocks production, deliveries and stocks (monthly, GB*) 
                  Concrete roofing tiles production, deliveries and stocks (quarterly, GB) 
                  Ready-mixed concrete deliveries (quarterly, UK) 
                  Values of overseas imports and exports trades for selected materials and components 
                   for use in construction (quarterly, UK) 
                  Value of EU and Non-EU Trade for selected materials and components for use in 
                   construction (annual, UK)
           Note: * Regional figures available
           These statistics support analysis of the construction materials market and business planning. 
           They are regularly reported in the construction press and are used for a variety of purposes, 
           including policy development and evaluation concerning the construction products industry, as 
           well as monitoring market trends. Further detail is available in this document under Uses of these 
           statistics.
           Seasonal Adjustment Review
           Seasonally adjusted series for deliveries of bricks, concrete blocks, ready-mixed concrete and 
           sales of sand and gravel are published in the data tables. The purpose of correcting the reported 
           series is to allow for seasonal factors such as winter weather (including the reduction in hours of 
           daylight, and frost and rain) and other seasonal events such as Christmas and Easter. Thus, 
           seasonally adjusted figures show the underlying trend more clearly. Further information can be 
           found in this document under Technical Information.
                                                                                                                            3

         Summary of Results
         Material Price Indices
         Chart 2: Construction Material Price Indices, UK 
         Index, 2015 = 100
                Year-on-year change                            Month-on-month change
              (April 2021 to April 2022)                       (March 2022 to April 2022
              New Housing                  22.0%          New Housing                    2.9%
              Other New Work               27.4%          Other New Work                 1.5%
              Repair & Maintenance         24.7%          Repair & Maintenance           3.2%
              All Work                     25.2%          All Work                       2.3%
               Looking at the longer-term change, the material price index for ‘All Work’ increased by 
                25.2% in April 2022 compared to the same month the previous year. 
               From 1st April 2022 most users of red diesel have been taxed at the standard rate for 
                diesel, following the removal of the entitlement to use red diesel and rebated biodiesel 
                from most sectors. This will result in a small step change in the material price indices 
                values. The Building Cost Information Service (BCIS) have published information 
                describing the changes and their impacts on price indices.
                                                                                                     4
