CPC v2.1 Code: 37

About glass and glass products and other non-metallic products n.e.c.

cpc code 37 encompasses a diverse range of non-metallic mineral products, including glass and glass-based items. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader economy, providing essential materials for construction, packaging, and a wide array of consumer and industrial applications. From architectural glass to specialized laboratory equipment, the products within this code contribute significantly to technological advancement and modern living.

Production process

The production of glass and other non-metallic products often involves a combination of melting, molding, and shaping techniques. Glass manufacturing typically begins with the fusion of raw materials, such as sand, soda ash, and limestone, at high temperatures. The molten glass is then formed into desired shapes through processes like blowing, pressing, or drawing. Other non-metallic products, such as ceramics and cement, may utilize similar high-temperature processing methods, often with the addition of specialized additives and finishing steps.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the industries covered by cpc code 37 include various mineral resources, such as silica sand, limestone, and clay. Depending on the specific product, manufacturers may also require specialized chemicals, binders, and additives. Additionally, the production of these non-metallic goods often relies on energy-efficient furnaces, specialized molding equipment, and advanced quality control systems.

Production outputs

The diverse range of outputs from cpc code 37 includes a wide variety of glass products, such as 3611 Flat glass, 3612 Hollow glass, and 3613 Glass fibres. These materials are then consumed by various other industries, including 41 Construction work, 42 Civil engineering works, and 44 Wholesale and retail trade services. Additionally, this code encompasses other non-metallic products, such as 369 Other non-metallic mineral products n.e.c., which may find applications in fields like 25 Fabricated metal products, except machinery and equipment and 26 Computer, electronic and optical products.
