Cements, mortars or concretes; their prepared additives

HS v2017 Code: 382440

About cements, mortars or concretes; their prepared additives

HS code 382440 covers a diverse range of construction materials, including cements, mortars, and concretes, as well as their prepared additives. These products play a crucial role in the construction industry, providing the essential building blocks for a wide variety of infrastructure projects, from residential buildings to large-scale commercial developments. As a key component of the construction supply chain, the 382440 industry is closely tied to the overall health and growth of the economy.

Production process

The production of cements, mortars, and concretes typically involves the careful blending and processing of various raw materials, such as limestone, clay, and gypsum. These materials are crushed, ground, and then heated in a kiln to produce a clinker, which is then ground into a fine powder to create the final cement product. Mortars and concretes are then created by mixing the cement with aggregates, such as sand and gravel, and water, and may also include various additives to enhance their properties, such as plasticizers or accelerators.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the 382440 industry include limestone, clay, gypsum, and other mineral resources used in the production of cement. Additionally, the industry relies on a range of machinery and equipment, such as crushers, kilns, and grinding mills, to process the raw materials. Energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are also essential for the production process.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the 382440 industry are cements, mortars, and concretes, which are then consumed by a variety of other industries, including 441000 Construction of buildings, 422000 Civil engineering, and 439000 Specialized construction activities. These construction materials are used in a wide range of applications, from the foundations of buildings to the construction of roads, bridges, and other infrastructure.
