HS v2022 Code: 3809

About finishing agents, dye carriers to accelerate the dyeing, fixing of dyestuffs, other products and preparations, of a kind used in the textile, paper, leather or like industries, n.e.c. or included

HS code 3809 covers a diverse range of finishing agents, dye carriers, and other products used in the textile, paper, leather, and related industries. These materials play a crucial role in enhancing the appearance, durability, and performance of a wide variety of consumer and industrial goods. As a key component of global supply chains, the 3809 industry is an important contributor to the broader manufacturing and processing sectors.

Production process

The production of goods classified under HS code 3809 typically involves the formulation and blending of various chemical compounds. This may include the synthesis of organic and inorganic compounds, the extraction and purification of natural substances, and the development of specialized additives and formulations. Manufacturers often employ advanced mixing, reaction, and separation technologies to ensure the consistent quality and performance of their products.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the 3809 industry include a range of raw materials such as 2914 Ketones and quinones, 2915 Saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acids and their anhydrides, halides, peroxides and peroxyacids; their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives, 2916 Unsaturated acyclic monocarboxylic acids, cyclic monocarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides and peroxyacids; their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives, and other organic and inorganic chemicals. Specialized production equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and mixing tanks, are also essential for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The products classified under HS code 3809 are primarily used as finishing agents, dye carriers, and other preparations in the textile, paper, leather, and related industries. These materials help to improve the appearance, color, and performance of a wide range of consumer and industrial goods, including clothing, upholstery, packaging, and leather products. The output of the 3809 industry may be consumed by manufacturers and processors classified under 5407 Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, 4811 Paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres, coated, impregnated, covered, surface-coloured, surface-decorated or printed, in rolls or sheets, and 4104 (Tanned or crust hides and skins of bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals, without hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared), among others.
