Plywood consisting solely of sheets, of coniferous wood

cpc code 31411 covers the production of plywood consisting solely of sheets, of coniferous wood. This type of plywood is a versatile and widely used material in the construction, furniture, and packaging industries. It offers a range of benefits, including strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness, making it an essential component in various applications across the global economy.

The production of plywood under cpc code 31411 involves several key steps. First, thin sheets of coniferous wood, such as pine or fir, are peeled or sliced from logs. These sheets are then dried and arranged in layers, with the grain of each layer oriented perpendicular to the one above and below it. The layers are then bonded together using adhesives, typically resin-based, to create the plywood panels. Finally, the panels may undergo additional processing, such as sanding or trimming, to meet specific size and quality requirements.

The main inputs required for the production of plywood under cpc code 31411 include coniferous wood logs, adhesives, and specialized machinery. The wood logs are typically sourced from 0210 Silviculture and other forestry activities operations, while the adhesives are often derived from 2059 Other chemical products n.e.c. manufacturing. The production process also relies on various types of machinery, such as peeling or slicing machines, drying equipment, and presses, which are typically provided by 2829 Other general-purpose machinery n.e.c. manufacturers.

The primary output of the industry covered by cpc code 31411 is plywood consisting solely of sheets, of coniferous wood. This plywood is widely used in the 4100 Construction of buildings and 3100 Manufacture of furniture industries, where it serves as a key material for various applications, such as flooring, wall paneling, and furniture components. Additionally, the plywood may be further processed and incorporated into 1621 Manufacture of veneer sheets and wood-based panels products, such as particle board or fiberboard.
