# 🏭 Industrial Complex

![Industrial Complex](https://cdn2.vnations.net/images/buildings/industrial.png)

An **Industrial Complex** boosts manufacturing in a region. It also adds pollution and makes the region less pleasant to live in.

## Requirements

|     |     |
|-----|-----|
| **VBX cost** | 50  |
| **Productivity required** | 500 |
| **Materials** | 250 Steel, 250 Cement |
| **Appeal** | −15 |
| **Prerequisites** | Can't be built in a region with a Tree Plantation |

## Effects

* **+15% production** for every manufacturing shift worked in the region, by players and NPCs, for each Industrial Complex owned by the nation that controls the region. Several complexes stack.
* **+10 pollution** in the region every day.
* Lowers the region's Appeal, so fewer NPCs will want to settle there.


:::tip
Build Industrial Complexes where your manufacturing companies already are, and balance the Appeal loss with civic buildings such as Hospitals or Sports Arenas.
