CPC v2.1 Code: 3433

About synthetic organic tanning substances; inorganic tanning substances; tanning preparations; enzymatic preparations for pre-tanning

cpc code 3433 covers a diverse range of chemical products used in the tanning and leather processing industries. These substances play a crucial role in transforming raw hides and skins into high-quality leather, which is then utilized in a wide array of consumer and industrial applications. The importance of this industry cannot be overstated, as it supports numerous downstream sectors, from fashion and automotive to furniture and upholstery.

Production process

The production of the materials covered under cpc code 3433 typically involves complex chemical processes. Synthetic organic tanning substances are often derived from petroleum-based feedstocks and undergo various reactions to create the desired tanning properties. Inorganic tanning substances, such as chromium salts, are also commonly used. Tanning preparations may combine multiple tanning agents, while enzymatic preparations are used for pre-tanning activities to remove unwanted components from the raw hides and skins.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of cpc code 3433 materials include a variety of organic and inorganic chemicals, as well as specialized machinery and equipment for the various processing steps. Key raw materials may include petroleum derivatives, mineral salts, enzymes, and other specialized chemicals. Additionally, the industry relies on a steady supply of high-quality raw hides and skins, which are typically sourced from the 0122 Animal production and 1011 Processing and preserving of meat industries.

Production outputs

The outputs of the cpc code 3433 industry are primarily used as inputs for the 1511 Tanning and dressing of leather; dressing and dyeing of fur industry, where they are used to transform raw hides and skins into finished leather products. The tanned and processed leather is then further utilized in the production of a wide range of consumer and industrial goods, such as 1512 Manufacture of luggage, handbags and the like, saddlery and harness and 3101 Manufacture of furniture.
