About containers for compressed or liquefied gas, of iron, steel or aluminium
cpc code 42220 covers the production of containers for compressed or liquefied gas, made of iron, steel, or aluminium. These containers play a crucial role in the storage and transportation of various industrial and commercial gases, such as oxygen, nitrogen, and propane. This industry is essential for supporting a wide range of industries, from manufacturing and construction to healthcare and energy production, making it a vital component of the broader economy.
Production process
The production of containers for compressed or liquefied gas typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, such as iron, steel, or aluminium, are sourced and prepared. The metal is then shaped and formed into the desired container size and shape, often using techniques like stamping, welding, or casting. The containers are then subjected to rigorous testing and quality control measures to ensure they meet safety and performance standards. Finally, the containers are finished, painted, and prepared for distribution to various end-users.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of containers for compressed or liquefied gas include 24100 Iron and steel basic industries, 24200 Non-ferrous metal basic industries, and specialized machinery and equipment for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce, energy sources, and transportation infrastructure to support the production and distribution of these containers.
Production outputs
The primary output of this industry is the containers themselves, which are then consumed by a variety of other industries, such as 20110 Manufacture of industrial gases, 20300 Manufacture of paints, varnishes and similar coatings, printing ink and mastics, and 35220 Manufacture of gas distribution and control apparatus. These containers are essential for the safe storage and transportation of compressed or liquefied gases, enabling a wide range of industrial, commercial, and consumer applications.
