Industrial Development in Pakistan

Made by : Sibghat-Ullah Abbasi, Uzair Bangash, Sarmad Sajid

Aims and Objectives of presentation In this presentation we will discuss about following aspects including raw materials, uses, economic benefits about the large scale and small scale industries. Then at the end, comparisons b/w industrialized countries will be compared with Pakistans industrial system

Large scale Industries Large scale industries are Formal sector

which are registered sectorsThese industries help Pakistan grow and contribute in making Pakistan’s economy better.

• It provides employment to large sectoring Pakistan

Cement industry Cement industry is flourishing in Pakistan

due following reasonAvailability of raw the material (limestone

and gypsum.Good domestic market with high demand

from construction industry.Cement Industries are mostly located in near

limestone ridges for example; Atock, Rawalpindi Nowhere etc.

Cotton Industries -Cotton textiles is Pakistan’s largest industry.• The raw material of this industry is obtained from

cotton crop, which is raw cotton, cotton yarn.• Cotton Industries are located all over Pakistan but

major cotton textile industries located in Karachi, Faisalabad and Hyderabad.

• The textile industry is the largest and the most important sector of the economy; as it possess great export potential and textile products from nearly 60% of total crops.

• On the other side there are also many problems which do not let this industry flourish: as shortage of raw material due to leaf curl virus in last four consecutive years.

Steel industry Pakistan steel Industries provide raw material to the

engineering and construction industryThe products of steel industries are coke, pig iron,

rolled and cast billets, galvanized products and raw steel.

Pakistan Steel Mill Corporation with technical and financial assistance from USSR, was established on 30 December 1973.

Steel industries in Pakistan reduces burden on foreign exchange resources.

Environmental pollution due to industrial waste is also caused.

Sugar industry• Sugar industries in Pakistan are located in

Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhawa and Sindh.• Most of the sugar cans are located in sugar

fields because :• Sugar-can stats losing its sugar content as

soon as it is harvested and sugar cane is bulky and heavy and so it is expensive to transport

• By Products of sugar industries are ;• Biogases and Molasses both used for various

reasons like fuels in sugar industries.

Fertilizers industriesChemical fertilizers have considered

increased since Green Revolution in 1960s.The raw materials are e.g. sulfur, phosphate,

gypsum are used to make different types of fertilizers.

These industries are located in Daud Khel in Punjab, Haripur, KPK and in Upper Sindh.

Major fertilizer factory in Pakistan is The Pak Arab Fertilizers Factory at Multan

Sports goods industry (small scale industry)Sports goods industry, located in Sialkot.Sports industry of Pakistan is export – oriented.The industry uses raw material such rubber, wood

pulp, stitching thread, leather etc.The sewing is done mainly in small workshop

manually and only the final stages of production are done in factories.

They are manufactured according to international standards.

Sialkot was selected to supply footballs for 1988 and 2014 world cup.

Surgical instruments industry(small scale industry)The surgical instrument manufacturing is

located in Sialkot city, Lahore and their ancillary areas.

Pakistan manufactures and exports high quality surgical instruments, beauty instruments, dental instruments, scissors, etc.

• Pakistan enjoys a meager share 1% of the world export of medical and dental instrument.

The surgical instrument industry faced great criticism and protest from international community on issue of child labour.

Brick kiln industry (small scale industry)Brick kilns is an important industry to Pakistan

providing employment in rural areas where agriculture may not be practiced.

Raw material is clay water and mainly coal.• Child and women labour is envolve and all the

work is done manually.• Then output is hard bricks used in construction

sector, lining if canals, protecting underground telephone cable lines.

• The are mostly located in hot regions like southern Punjab and other rural areas of countries

Economic benefits to Pakistan from large and small scale industriesIndustrialization promotes specialization of labor. The division of work increases the marginal value product of labor.

Industrial Sector is the second largest individual sector of the economy accounting for 24% of the GDP.

• Industrialization helps in increasing the value of output per worker. 

• Industrial sector also helps government to stabilize price in country when goods are available in sufficient quantity, there is n0 change of increasing prices of these items.

• Industrialization increases the income of the workers.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS DUE TO INDUSRIALIZATIONInefficient Waste Disposal: Water pollution and soil pollution

are often caused directly due to inefficiency in disposal of waste.

Water Pollution: The effects of industrial pollution are far reaching and liable to affect the eco-system for many years to come.

Atmospheric and aquatic and pollution caused by chemical units, brick kilns, factories and traffic on roads is posing serious health hazards.

The Turing of machinery also causes noise pollution detrimental to human health and results in deafness and irritability.

The costal areas of Karachi are badly by pollution.

INDUSTIRES OF GERMANY AND FRANCEIn Germany The service sector contributes around 70%

of the total GDP, industry 29.1%, and agriculture 0.9%. Most of the country's products are in engineering, especially in automobiles, machinery, metals, and chemical goods. Germany is the leading producer of wind turbines and solar power technology in the world.

The chemical industry is a key sector for France, helping to develop other manufacturing activities and contributing to economic growth. France's tourism industry is a major component of the economy, as France is the most visited destination in the world.

How to treat industrial waste efficientlyIron and steel industry The production of iron from its ores involves powerful 

reduction reactions in blast furnaces. Cooling waters are inevitably contaminated with products especially ammonia and cyanide. Production of coke from coal in coking plants also requires water cooling and the use of water in by-products separation. 

The cement industry, in cooperation with the waste management sector, has developed pre-treatment practices, such as screening, blending and shredding, to produce suitable materials from waste that meet cement kiln requirements.
