About steam or other vapour generating boilers (other than central heating hot water boilers capable also of producing low pressure steam); super-heated water boilers

cpc code 4232 covers the manufacturing of steam or other vapour generating boilers, as well as super-heated water boilers. These types of boilers play a crucial role in various industrial and commercial applications, providing essential heating and power generation capabilities across a wide range of sectors. As a key component of many industrial processes, the production and supply of these boilers is vital to the broader economy.

Production process

The production of steam or other vapour generating boilers and super-heated water boilers typically involves a multi-step process. This includes the fabrication of the boiler shell and internal components, the installation of heating elements and control systems, and the final assembly and testing of the complete unit. Specialized welding techniques, precision machining, and rigorous quality control measures are essential to ensure the safety and reliability of these boilers.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of cpc code 4232 boilers include high-quality steel and other metal alloys for the boiler shell and components, as well as specialized heating elements, valves, and control systems. Additionally, the manufacturing process relies on a range of machinery and equipment, such as welding machines, metal-cutting tools, and testing apparatus. Skilled labour, including boilermakers, pipefitters, and control system technicians, is also a critical input for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of cpc code 4232 is steam or other vapour generating boilers and super-heated water boilers, which are then supplied to a variety of industries, including 2410 Iron and steel basic industries, 2420 Manufacture of basic precious and non-ferrous metals, and 2511 Manufacture of structural metal products. These boilers are essential for powering industrial processes, generating electricity, and providing heating in commercial and residential buildings.
