About iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled, hot-rolled, of a width 600mm or more, n.e.c. in heading no. 7208

HS code 720890 covers a critical segment of the steel industry, encompassing the production of hot-rolled, flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel products with a width of 600mm or more. These steel products are essential raw materials for a wide range of industries, including construction, automotive, machinery, and infrastructure development, making them a vital component of the global economy.

Production process

The production of 720890 steel products typically involves a multi-step hot-rolling process. First, steel slabs or billets are heated to high temperatures, then passed through a series of rolling mills that gradually reduce the thickness and shape the steel into the desired flat-rolled form. The hot-rolling process imparts specific mechanical properties to the steel, such as increased strength and ductility, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of 720890 steel products include iron ore, coal, and other alloying elements, such as manganese, chromium, and nickel. Specialized rolling mills, furnaces, and other steel-making equipment are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, skilled labor, energy resources, and efficient logistics and transportation systems are critical to the industry's operations.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the 720890 industry are hot-rolled, flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel products, which can be further processed or used directly in various applications. These steel products may be consumed by industries such as 730110 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel; plates, rods, angles, shapes, sections, tubes and the like, prepared for use in structures, 870120 Motor vehicles for the transport of goods, and 842199 Parts of machinery for filtering or purifying liquids or gases.
