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

cpc code 36920 covers a diverse range of self-adhesive plastic products that have a wide array of applications across various industries. These materials are essential for packaging, labeling, and a multitude of other uses, making them a crucial component of the global economy. The production and trade of these plastic goods play a significant role in facilitating international commerce and supporting the growth of numerous sectors.

The manufacturing of self-adhesive plastic products under cpc code 36920 typically involves a combination of extrusion, lamination, and coating processes. Plastic resins, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or polyvinyl chloride, are extruded into thin sheets or films, which are then coated with adhesive substances. These adhesive-coated materials are then cut, slit, or die-cut into the desired shapes and sizes, ready for various applications.

The main inputs required for the production of self-adhesive plastic products under cpc code 36920 include plastic resins, adhesives, and specialized machinery. Plastic resins, such as 3511 Polyethylene, 3512 Polypropylene, and 3513 Polyvinyl chloride, serve as the primary raw materials. Adhesives, such as pressure-sensitive or heat-activated formulations, are also essential components. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized extrusion, lamination, and cutting equipment to efficiently manufacture these versatile plastic products.

The self-adhesive plastic products covered under cpc code 36920 are widely used as inputs for a variety of downstream industries. These materials are commonly found in 3924 Packaging products, 3925 Labeling, 3926 Tapes and adhesive products, and 3927 Other plastic products. The diverse applications of these self-adhesive plastic goods contribute to their significant role in facilitating global trade and supporting the growth of numerous economic sectors.
