Wood tar; wood tar oils; wood creosote; wood naphtha; vegetable pitch; brewers' pitch and similar preparations based on rosin, resin acids or on vegetable pitch
HS v2017 Code: 3807
About wood tar; wood tar oils; wood creosote; wood naphtha; vegetable pitch; brewers' pitch and similar preparations based on rosin, resin acids or on vegetable pitch
HS code 3807 covers a diverse range of products derived from wood and vegetable sources, including wood tar, wood tar oils, wood creosote, wood naphtha, vegetable pitch, and brewers' pitch. These materials have a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications, making them an important part of the global trade landscape. They are utilized in various industries, from construction and transportation to agriculture and pharmaceuticals, highlighting their significance within the broader economy.
Production process
The production of the materials covered under HS code 3807 typically involves the distillation or extraction of compounds from wood or vegetable sources. Wood tar, for example, is produced by the destructive distillation of wood, while wood creosote is obtained through the distillation of wood tar. Vegetable pitch and brewers' pitch are often derived from the residues of various industrial processes, such as the production of rosin or the brewing of beer.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of the goods under HS code 3807 include various types of wood, such as softwood or hardwood, as well as vegetable sources like pine trees or certain agricultural byproducts. Additionally, specialized equipment and machinery, such as distillation columns and extraction units, are necessary for the processing and refining of these materials.
Production outputs
The outputs of the industries covered by HS code 3807 are diverse and find applications in a wide range of sectors. Wood tar and wood tar oils are used in the production of 2707 Oils and other products of the distillation of high temperature coal tar; similar products in which the weight of the aromatic constituents exceeds that of the non-aromatic constituents, while wood creosote and wood naphtha are utilized in 2707 Oils and other products of the distillation of high temperature coal tar; similar products in which the weight of the aromatic constituents exceeds that of the non-aromatic constituents and 2710 Petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals, other than crude; preparations not elsewhere specified or included, containing by weight 70% or more of petroleum oils or of oils obtained from bituminous minerals, these oils being the basic constituents of the preparations; waste oils. Vegetable pitch and brewers' pitch are often used in the production of 3806 Rosin and resin acids, and derivatives thereof; rosin spirit and rosin oils; run gums and 3807 Wood tar; wood tar oils; wood creosote; wood naphtha; vegetable pitch; brewers' pitch and similar preparations based on rosin, resin acids or on vegetable pitch.
