HS v2022 Code: 151419

About vegetable oils; low erucic acid rape or colza oil and its fractions, other than crude, but not chemically modified

HS code 151419 covers the trade of vegetable oils derived from low erucic acid rape or colza seeds. These oils are widely used in the food, cosmetic, and industrial sectors, making them an important component of the global agricultural and manufacturing economies. The ability to refine and process these oils into a variety of fractions and derivatives further enhances their versatility and market demand.

Production process

The production of low erucic acid rape or colza oil typically involves several key steps. First, the rape or colza seeds are harvested and cleaned. They are then crushed or pressed to extract the crude oil. This crude oil is then refined, bleached, and deodorized to remove impurities and improve its quality and stability. Depending on the intended use, the refined oil may undergo additional processing, such as fractionation, to produce specific oil fractions with tailored properties.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 151419 products include the low erucic acid rape or colza seeds, which serve as the primary raw material. Additionally, the process requires various equipment and machinery for crushing, refining, and processing the oils. Energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are also necessary to power the production facilities. Chemicals used for refining, such as bleaching earth and deodorizers, are other significant inputs.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 151419 is the refined, low erucic acid rape or colza oil, which can be further processed into a range of fractions and derivatives. These oils find applications in the food industry, where they are used for cooking, frying, and as ingredients in various food products. They are also utilized in the production of 340300 Lubricating preparations and 382490 Chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries, not elsewhere specified or included.
