HS v2022 Code: 1211
About plants and parts of plants (including seeds and fruits), of a kind used primarily in perfumery, in pharmacy or for insecticidal, fungicidal or similar purposes, fresh, chilled, frozen or dried, whether or not cut, crushed or powdered
HS code 1211 covers a diverse range of plants and plant parts that are primarily used in the production of perfumes, pharmaceuticals, and pesticides. This industry plays a vital role in the global economy, providing essential raw materials for a wide range of consumer and industrial products. The demand for these natural ingredients continues to grow, driven by increasing consumer preference for organic and sustainable products.
Production process
The production techniques for the items under HS code 1211 vary depending on the specific plant or plant part. In general, the process involves harvesting the plants, either from wild sources or cultivated plantations, and then processing them through various methods such as drying, grinding, or extraction. The final products may be sold in their raw form or further processed into more refined ingredients for use in various applications.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of items under HS code 1211 are the plants and plant parts themselves. This can include a wide variety of species, such as herbs, flowers, roots, and seeds. In addition to the raw plant materials, the industry may also require specialized equipment for harvesting, drying, and processing the products. Other inputs may include energy sources, packaging materials, and transportation services.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 1211 are the processed plant materials, which are then used as inputs for a variety of downstream industries. These include the 3303 Perfumes and toilet waters, 3004 Medicaments, and 3808 Insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, anti-sprouting products and plant-growth regulators, disinfectants and similar products. The industry also produces a range of essential oils, extracts, and other derivatives that are used in a wide array of consumer and industrial products.
