About aluminium; structures (excluding prefabricated buildings of heading no. 9406) and parts of structures, doors, windows and their frames and thresholds for doors

HS code 761010 covers a wide range of aluminium-based structural components, including doors, windows, and their frames and thresholds. This industry plays a crucial role in the construction and manufacturing sectors, providing essential building materials that contribute to the overall infrastructure and development of economies worldwide. As a versatile and durable material, aluminium is increasingly preferred over traditional materials like steel and wood, making this industry a significant player in the global import/export landscape.

Production process

The production of aluminium structures and their components typically involves a multi-step process. First, raw aluminium is extracted and refined, often through electrolytic smelting processes. The refined aluminium is then shaped and formed into the desired structural elements, such as extrusions, castings, or sheets, using techniques like rolling, stamping, or die-casting. These components are then assembled, often with the addition of other hardware like hinges, locks, and weatherstripping, to create the final products.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the 761010 industry include raw aluminium, as well as various alloying elements like copper, magnesium, and silicon, which are used to enhance the material's strength, corrosion resistance, and other properties. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment for the shaping, forming, and assembly of the aluminium components. Energy sources, such as electricity and natural gas, are also essential for the smelting and manufacturing processes.

Production outputs

The main outputs of the 761010 industry are aluminium structures, doors, windows, and their associated parts and frames. These products are widely used in the construction of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, as well as in various manufacturing applications. The outputs of this industry may be consumed by other HS codes, such as 940610 Prefabricated buildings, 830210 Base metal mountings, fittings and similar articles suitable for buildings, and 830241 Hinges, of base metal.
