CPC v2.1 Code: 3692

About self-adhesive plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, strip and other flat shapes, of plastics

cpc code 3692 covers the production of a wide range of self-adhesive plastic products, including plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, and other flat shapes. These versatile materials find applications across numerous industries, serving as essential components in packaging, labeling, construction, and a variety of other commercial and industrial uses. As a key part of the broader plastics manufacturing sector, this industry plays a vital role in supporting economic activity and meeting the diverse needs of modern consumers and businesses.

Production process

The production of self-adhesive plastic products under cpc code 3692 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw plastic materials, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or PVC, are extruded or calendered into thin sheets or films. These base materials are then coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, often using techniques like hot-melt coating or solvent-based application. Finally, the adhesive-coated plastic is cut, slit, and converted into the desired shapes and sizes, ready for use in various applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of self-adhesive plastic products under cpc code 3692 include a range of plastic resins, adhesives, and specialized machinery. Common plastic raw materials include 3511 Petrochemical feedstocks, such as polyethylene and polypropylene, as well as other polymers like PVC. Adhesives, both solvent-based and hot-melt, are a critical component, providing the self-sticking properties. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized extrusion, coating, and converting equipment to efficiently manufacture these versatile plastic products.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by cpc code 3692 are self-adhesive plastic plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, and other flat shapes. These products are widely used in a variety of applications, including 3812 Packaging and packing products, 3811 Labels, construction materials, and various industrial and commercial applications. The outputs of this industry may serve as inputs for other industries, such as 3692 Self-adhesive plates, sheets, film, foil, tape, strip and other flat shapes, of plastics, 3811 Labels, and 3812 Packaging and packing products.
