HS v2017 Code: 722530

About steel, alloy; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, hot-rolled, in coils

HS code 722530 covers the classification of steel, alloy; flat-rolled, with a width of 600mm or more, that has been hot-rolled and is in coil form. This industry plays a crucial role in the global manufacturing and construction sectors, providing a versatile and durable material for a wide range of applications. The production and trade of these steel products are essential components of the broader international trade and economic landscape.

Production process

The production of steel products under HS code 722530 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, including iron ore, coal, and various alloying elements, are melted in a furnace to create the desired steel composition. The molten steel is then cast into slabs or billets, which are subsequently rolled and flattened using powerful rolling mills to achieve the desired thickness and width. Finally, the flat-rolled steel is coiled for efficient storage and transportation.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of steel products under HS code 722530 include iron ore, coal, and various alloying elements such as chromium, nickel, and manganese. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment, such as furnaces, rolling mills, and coiling systems, to facilitate the manufacturing process. Energy sources, such as electricity and natural gas, are also crucial inputs for the industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 722530 is flat-rolled steel in coil form, which is a versatile material used in a wide range of industries. These steel products may be further processed or consumed by other industries, such as 730890 Structures and parts of structures, of iron or steel, n.e.s., 732111 Cooking appliances and plate warmers for domestic use, non-electric, and 870120 Road tractors for semi-trailers.
