About lamps; filament, (excluding ultra-violet or infra-red), of a power not exceeding 200w and for a voltage exceeding 100 volts, other than tungsten halogen

hs code 853922 covers a specific type of electric lamps, known as filament lamps, that are used for general lighting purposes. These lamps are an essential component in the broader lighting industry, which plays a crucial role in residential, commercial, and industrial applications across the global economy. The demand for efficient and cost-effective lighting solutions continues to drive innovation and growth in this sector.

Production process

The production of filament lamps described by hs code 853922 typically involves several key steps. First, the glass envelope or bulb is formed, often through a molding process. The filament, usually made of tungsten, is then precisely shaped and positioned within the bulb. The bulb is then sealed and filled with an inert gas to protect the filament. Finally, the lamp is tested for quality and safety before being packaged for distribution.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of filament lamps under hs code 853922 include high-purity tungsten for the filament, specialized glass for the bulb, and inert gases such as argon or nitrogen. Additionally, the industry relies on advanced manufacturing equipment, including precision molding machines and automated assembly lines, as well as skilled technicians to operate these systems.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by hs code 853922 is the filament lamp itself, which is then consumed by a variety of other industries and applications. These lamps are commonly used in 851210 Electrical lighting or signalling equipment for motor vehicles, 940510 Chandeliers and other electric ceiling or wall lighting fittings, and 940520 Electric table, desk, bedside or floor-standing lamps, among others. The industry also produces a range of related components and accessories that support the broader lighting market.

Revisions to 853922

Classification codes are adjusted frequently. The code may have been revised or replaced between system versions. The table below shows the history (newest to oldest) of the code 853922. The most recent 1 version of this code (853922) is in the HS v2022 system:
