Fibreboard (other than MDF) of a density exceeding 0.8g/cm3, of wood or other ligneous materials, bonded or not with resins or other organic substances

HS v2017 Code: 441192

About fibreboard (other than mdf) of a density exceeding 0.8g/cm3, of wood or other ligneous materials, bonded or not with resins or other organic substances

HS code 441192 covers a specific type of fibreboard, a versatile engineered wood product used in a wide range of applications. This high-density fibreboard, with a density exceeding 0.8g/cm3, is a crucial component in the construction, furniture, and packaging industries, offering superior strength, durability, and thermal insulation properties. As a key material in the broader wood products sector, this fibreboard plays a significant role in supporting global trade and economic development.

Production process

The production of HS code 441192 fibreboard typically involves a multi-step process. First, wood or other ligneous materials are broken down into fine fibers through mechanical or chemical means. These fibers are then bonded together using resins or other organic substances, often under heat and pressure, to form the dense, rigid panels. The specific production techniques may vary depending on the manufacturer, but the core process of transforming raw materials into high-performance fibreboard remains consistent.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 441192 fibreboard include wood or other ligneous materials, such as 440122 Beech wood, 440391 Oak wood, or 440399 Other wood in the rough. Additionally, resins or other organic substances, such as 380210 Activated carbon, are used as binding agents. Specialized machinery, including fiber preparation equipment, pressing machines, and drying systems, are also essential for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 441192 is high-density fibreboard, which is widely used in the construction, furniture, and packaging industries. This fibreboard can be further processed and incorporated into a variety of end products, such as 441830 Builders' joinery and carpentry of wood, 940320 Other furniture and parts thereof, and 442190 Other articles of wood. The versatility and durability of this fibreboard make it a valuable material for numerous applications across various industries.
