HS v2017 Code: 3924

About tableware, kitchenware, other household articles and hygienic or toilet articles, of plastics

HS code 3924 covers a diverse range of plastic-based household and personal care items, including tableware, kitchenware, and various other articles for domestic use. This industry plays a crucial role in the global consumer goods market, providing affordable and durable solutions for everyday needs. As plastics continue to offer cost-effective and versatile alternatives to traditional materials, the 3924 industry has become an integral part of the broader manufacturing and retail sectors.

Production process

The production of 3924 items typically involves various plastic molding techniques, such as injection molding, blow molding, and thermoforming. These processes allow manufacturers to create a wide array of shapes and sizes to meet the diverse demands of consumers. Advanced automation and quality control measures ensure the consistent production of reliable and functional household articles.

Production inputs

The 3924 industry relies on a steady supply of plastic resins, including polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene, as the primary raw materials. Additionally, the industry utilizes various additives, such as colorants, stabilizers, and reinforcing agents, to enhance the properties and aesthetics of the final products. Specialized machinery, including injection molding machines, extruders, and thermoforming equipment, are essential for the efficient and high-quality manufacturing of 3924 items.

Production outputs

The 3924 industry produces a wide range of household and personal care items, including plates, cups, bowls, utensils, food storage containers, cleaning tools, and various other plastic-based articles for domestic use. These outputs are often consumed by 4202 Luggage, handbags and the like, travel, sports and similar containers, 3923 Articles for the conveyance or packing of goods, of plastics; stoppers, lids, caps and other closures, of plastics, and 9403 Other furniture and parts thereof, among other industries and sectors.
