HS v2017 Code: 681292

About asbestos or mixtures with a basis of asbestos (other than crocidolite); paper, millboard and felt, whether or not reinforced, not goods of heading 6811 or 6813

HS code 681292 covers a range of products containing asbestos or asbestos-based mixtures, excluding crocidolite. These materials are commonly used in the construction and manufacturing industries due to their durability, heat resistance, and insulating properties. The global asbestos industry plays a significant role in the broader economy, providing essential materials for various applications.

Production process

The production of asbestos-containing materials typically involves mining and processing asbestos fibers, which are then combined with other materials such as paper, millboard, or felt. The fibers are often woven or pressed into the desired shape or form, and the final products may undergo additional treatments or coatings to enhance their properties.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of goods under HS code 681292 include asbestos fibers, as well as other raw materials such as paper, millboard, and felt. Specialized machinery and equipment are also necessary for the various processing and manufacturing steps involved in creating these products.

Production outputs

The outputs of this industry include a wide range of asbestos-containing materials, such as insulation panels, roofing tiles, and gaskets. These products are often used in the construction, automotive, and industrial sectors, and may be consumed by industries covered under other HS codes, such as 6811 Articles of asbestos-cement, of cellulose fiber-cement or the like and 6813 (Friction material and articles thereof (for example, sheets, rolls, strips, segments, discs, washers, pads), not mounted, for brakes, for clutches or the like, with a basis of asbestos, of other mineral substances or of cellulose, whether or not combined with textile or other materials).

Revisions to 681292
