About baby carriages and parts thereof

cpc code 38992 covers the production and trade of baby carriages and their component parts. This industry plays a vital role in the broader economy, catering to the needs of families with young children. Baby carriages, also known as strollers or prams, are an essential item for transporting infants and toddlers safely and comfortably. The demand for these products is driven by factors such as rising birth rates, growing awareness of child safety, and the increasing purchasing power of middle-class consumers, particularly in developing economies.

Production process

The production of baby carriages typically involves a combination of metalworking, plastics fabrication, and textile manufacturing techniques. Manufacturers often start with a metal frame, which is then outfitted with various components such as wheels, handles, and suspension systems. Plastic parts, such as the carriage body and canopy, are molded and assembled. Textiles, including the seat cushions and sun shades, are cut and sewn to provide comfort and protection for the child.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of baby carriages include steel or aluminum for the frame, various plastic resins for the body and components, and textile materials such as cotton, polyester, and nylon for the soft goods. Manufacturers also rely on specialized machinery and tools, such as metal stamping presses, injection molding machines, and sewing equipment. Additionally, the industry requires a skilled workforce capable of assembling the various components into a functional and durable product.

Production outputs

The primary output of cpc code 38992 is complete baby carriages, which are then distributed to retailers, specialty stores, and online marketplaces for sale to consumers. These baby carriages may be further classified under 87111 Strollers, baby carriages and parts thereof or 87112 Baby carriages, motorized and parts thereof, depending on their specific features and design.
