About millstones, grindstones, grinding wheels and the like, without frameworks, for working stones, and parts thereof, of natural stone, of agglomerated natural or artificial abrasives, or of ceramics; natural or artificial abrasive powder or grain, on a base of textile, paper or other material

cpc code 37910 covers a diverse range of abrasive products that are essential for various industrial and commercial applications. These products, which include millstones, grindstones, grinding wheels, and abrasive powders or grains, play a crucial role in the processing, shaping, and finishing of materials across a wide spectrum of industries, from construction and manufacturing to mining and agriculture. As a key component of the broader abrasives industry, this code represents a significant segment of the global economy, contributing to the efficient production and transformation of a wide array of goods and materials.

Production process

The production of the items covered under cpc code 37910 typically involves a combination of specialized manufacturing techniques. Millstones, grindstones, and grinding wheels are often produced by bonding natural or artificial abrasive materials, such as silicon carbide or aluminum oxide, to a suitable base material, such as stone, ceramic, or metal. The abrasive powder or grain may be produced through processes like crushing, grinding, or sieving of natural or synthetic materials. The final products are then shaped, sized, and finished to meet the specific requirements of their intended applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the items under cpc code 37910 include raw materials such as natural stone, agglomerated natural or artificial abrasives, and ceramics. Additionally, manufacturers may utilize various binding agents, adhesives, and other materials to create the desired product characteristics. Specialized machinery, such as grinding, shaping, and finishing equipment, is also a crucial input for this industry. The availability and quality of these raw materials and production equipment can significantly impact the overall efficiency and competitiveness of the industry.

Production outputs

The products covered under cpc code 37910 are primarily used as tools and components in a wide range of industries, including 37920 Millstones, grindstones, grinding wheels and the like, without frameworks, for working stones, and parts thereof, of natural stone, of agglomerated natural or artificial abrasives, or of ceramics; natural or artificial abrasive powder or grain, on a base of textile, paper or other material, 28220 Machinery for mining, quarrying and construction, and 25500 Manufacture of domestic appliances. These abrasive products are essential for tasks such as cutting, grinding, polishing, and sharpening, making them indispensable in various manufacturing, construction, and maintenance processes.
