HS v2017 Code: 151519

About vegetable oils; linseed oil and its fractions, other than crude, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified

HS code 151519 covers a range of processed vegetable oils, including linseed oil, that have undergone refining or other processing but have not been chemically modified. These oils play a crucial role in various industries, from food production to industrial applications, and are an important part of the broader global trade in agricultural commodities.

Production process

The production of the oils covered by HS code 151519 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw vegetable material, such as linseed, is harvested and processed to extract the crude oil. This crude oil is then refined through techniques like filtration, bleaching, and deodorization to remove impurities and improve the oil's quality and stability. Depending on the specific end-use requirements, the refined oil may undergo further processing, such as fractionation or hydrogenation.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the oils covered by HS code 151519 are the raw vegetable materials, such as linseed, as well as various processing equipment and chemicals used in the refining and finishing stages. Specialized machinery for oil extraction, filtration, and other processing steps are also essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The oils produced under HS code 151519 are used in a wide range of applications, including food production, industrial lubricants, and personal care products. The refined and processed oils may be further consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 151590 Vegetable fats and oils and their fractions, n.e.c., refined but not chemically modified and 340600 Candles, tapers and the like.
