The reading was lower than forecast by analysts, who had expected an increase of 11.2 percent, Poland’s PAP news agency reported.

In month-on-month terms, Polish industrial production in June was 0.3 percent lower than in May, the Central Statistical Office said.

Meanwhile, the country's seasonally-adjusted industrial production increased by 10.5 percent in year-on-year terms in June, while falling 0.9 percent month on month, the state-run statistics agency also said.

According to the European Unions Eurostat statistics agency, which uses a different methodology, seasonally-adjusted industrial production in Poland rose 15 percent in May, the third-fastest rate of growth in the 27-nation bloc.
