Artificial monofilament and strip

CPC v2.1 Code: 3556

About artificial monofilament and strip

cpc code 3556 covers the production of artificial monofilament and strip, which are essential components in a wide range of industries. These materials are used in the manufacture of textiles, fishing nets, ropes, and various industrial applications. The artificial monofilament and strip industry plays a crucial role in supporting the global economy by providing raw materials for numerous downstream sectors.

Production process

The production of artificial monofilament and strip typically involves the extrusion of synthetic polymers, such as nylon, polyester, or polypropylene, through small orifices to create continuous filaments. These filaments are then drawn and stretched to achieve the desired diameter and tensile strength. In some cases, the filaments may be further processed, such as by cutting or slitting, to create the desired strip or monofilament products.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the artificial monofilament and strip industry include synthetic polymers, such as 3251 Plastics in primary forms, as well as specialized machinery and equipment for the extrusion and drawing processes. Additionally, energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are necessary to power the production facilities.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the artificial monofilament and strip industry are the monofilament and strip products themselves, which are then consumed by various other industries. These include the 1312 Textile weaving, 1392 Manufacture of made-up textile articles, except apparel, and 1394 Manufacture of cordage, rope, twine and netting industries, among others.
