HS v2017 Code: 3809

About finishing agents, dye carriers to accelerate the dyeing, fixing of dyestuffs, other products and preparations, of a kind used in the textile, paper, leather or like industries, n.e.c. or included

HS code 3809 covers a diverse range of finishing agents, dye carriers, and other products used in the textile, paper, leather, and related industries. These specialized chemicals play a crucial role in enhancing the performance, appearance, and durability of a wide variety of materials and products. As a key component of many manufacturing processes, this industry is integral to the broader economy, supporting the production of textiles, paper, leather goods, and other essential consumer and industrial items.

Production process

The production of goods under HS code 3809 typically involves the formulation and blending of various chemical compounds. Manufacturers may utilize processes such as mixing, emulsification, and encapsulation to create the desired finishing agents, dye carriers, and other preparations. Advanced technologies, including continuous flow reactors and automated control systems, are often employed to ensure consistent quality and efficient production.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the HS code 3809 industry include a range of organic and inorganic chemicals, such as surfactants, polymers, and auxiliary agents. Manufacturers may also rely on specialized machinery and equipment, including mixing tanks, reactors, and packaging systems. Additionally, the industry requires skilled labor, including chemists, process engineers, and production technicians, to oversee the formulation and processing of these specialized products.

Production outputs

The outputs of the HS code 3809 industry are primarily used in the textile, paper, leather, and related industries. These finishing agents, dye carriers, and other preparations are essential for improving the performance, appearance, and durability of a wide range of materials and products. Some of the key outputs may include 5407 Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, 4802 Uncoated paper and paperboard, of a kind used for writing, printing or other graphic purposes, and non-perforated punch-cards and punch tape paper, in rolls or sheets, other than paper of heading 4801 or 4803, and 4104 (Tanned or crust hides and skins of bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals, without hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared), among others.
