About carbon paper, self-copy paper and other copying or transfer papers, not in bulk sizes; duplicator stencils and offset plates, of paper

cpc code 32191 covers a diverse range of paper-based products that are essential for various office and commercial applications. These products, which include carbon paper, self-copy paper, and other copying or transfer papers, as well as duplicator stencils and offset plates, play a crucial role in the efficient management and documentation of information across a wide range of industries. As a key component of the broader paper and printing industry, this cpc code represents an important segment of the economy, supporting the needs of businesses, government agencies, and individual consumers alike.

Production process

The production of the items covered under cpc code 32191 typically involves a combination of paper manufacturing and specialized coating or treatment processes. Carbon paper, for example, is produced by coating one side of the paper with a thin layer of wax or ink-based pigment, which can then be transferred to another surface when pressure is applied. Self-copy paper, on the other hand, is manufactured with a special coating that allows for the creation of duplicate copies without the use of a separate carbon sheet. Duplicator stencils and offset plates are produced through a more complex process that involves the creation of a master template, which is then used to create multiple copies or plates for printing purposes.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the items covered under cpc code 32191 include high-quality paper stock, specialized coatings and pigments, and various types of machinery and equipment. Paper manufacturers play a crucial role in providing the base material, while chemical suppliers and coating specialists contribute the necessary materials for the specialized treatments. Additionally, the industry relies on a range of printing and duplicating equipment, such as offset presses, stencil-making machines, and other specialized tools, to facilitate the production and processing of these products.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered under cpc code 32191 are the various types of carbon paper, self-copy paper, and other copying or transfer papers, as well as duplicator stencils and offset plates. These products are then consumed by a wide range of industries, including 32192 Office and school supplies, 32193 Printing and related services, and 32194 Stationery and related products, among others. The versatility of these products allows them to be used in a variety of applications, from office administration and document management to commercial printing and graphic design.
