CPC v2.1 Code: 41211

About flat-rolled products of non-alloy steel, not further worked than hot-rolled, of a width of 600 mm or more

cpc code 41211 covers the production of flat-rolled products of non-alloy steel, not further worked than hot-rolled, with a width of 600 mm or more. This industry plays a crucial role in the global steel supply chain, providing essential raw materials for a wide range of manufacturing and construction industries. As a key component of the 41 Manufacture of basic metals sector, this industry's output is integral to the broader economy, supporting the development of infrastructure, transportation, and various consumer goods.

Production process

The production of flat-rolled non-alloy steel products under cpc code 41211 primarily involves hot-rolling techniques. This process begins with the melting and casting of steel billets or slabs, which are then reheated and passed through a series of rolling mills to reduce the thickness and shape the material into the desired flat-rolled form. The hot-rolling process imparts specific mechanical properties to the steel, such as strength and ductility, without the need for further heat treatment or finishing operations.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of flat-rolled non-alloy steel products under cpc code 41211 include iron ore, coal, and other raw materials used in the steelmaking process. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized rolling mills, furnaces, and other heavy machinery to facilitate the hot-rolling operations. Energy, in the form of electricity and natural gas, is another critical input for the production of these steel products.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by cpc code 41211 is flat-rolled non-alloy steel products, such as hot-rolled coils, sheets, and plates. These materials are then consumed by a variety of downstream industries, including 42 Manufacture of fabricated metal products, except machinery and equipment, 43 Manufacture of machinery and equipment n.e.c., and 45 Construction, where they are used in the production of a wide range of goods and infrastructure.
