HS v2017 Code: 7010

About carboys, bottles, flasks, jars, pots, phials, ampoules, containers of glass of a kind used for the conveyance or packing of goods; preserving jars of glass; stoppers, lids and other closures of glass

HS code 7010 covers a wide range of glass containers and packaging products that are essential for the transportation, storage, and preservation of various goods across numerous industries. These glass containers play a crucial role in the global supply chain, ensuring the safe and efficient movement of products from producers to consumers. The demand for these versatile glass packaging solutions remains strong, driven by factors such as the growing need for sustainable and environmentally-friendly packaging options.

Production process

The production of the glass containers and packaging products covered under HS code 7010 typically involves a multi-step process. The primary raw materials, such as silica sand, soda ash, and limestone, are melted at high temperatures to create the molten glass. This molten glass is then formed into the desired shapes and sizes using various techniques, including blowing, pressing, and molding. The finished products may undergo additional processing, such as annealing, coating, or decorating, to enhance their durability, appearance, and functionality.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the glass containers and packaging products under HS code 7010 include raw materials like 2505 Silica sand, 2511 Barium sulfate, 2521 Limestone flux, and 2801 Chlorine. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment, such as glass-blowing machines, molds, and annealing ovens, are essential for the manufacturing process. Energy sources, such as natural gas or electricity, are also crucial inputs for the high-temperature melting and forming of the glass.

Production outputs

The glass containers and packaging products covered under HS code 7010 are widely used across various industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and chemical sectors. These glass containers are often consumed by industries classified under codes such as 2203 Beer made from malt, 2204 Wine of fresh grapes, 2208 Undenatured ethyl alcohol of an alcoholic strength by volume of less than 80% vol; spirits, liqueurs and other spirituous beverages, 3004 (Medicaments (excluding goods of heading 3002, 3005 or 3006) consisting of mixed or unmixed products for therapeutic or prophylactic uses, put up in measured doses (including those in the form of transdermal administration systems) or in forms or packings for retail sale), and 3303 Perfumes and toilet waters.
