Mortars and concretes; non-refractory

HS v2022 Code: 382450

About mortars and concretes; non-refractory

HS code 382450 covers a diverse range of non-refractory mortars and concretes, which are essential materials in the construction and building industries. These products play a crucial role in the infrastructure development and maintenance of residential, commercial, and industrial structures worldwide. As a key component of the broader construction materials sector, the 382450 industry is closely tied to economic growth and development, making it a significant contributor to the global economy.

Production process

The production of mortars and concretes under HS code 382450 typically involves the careful mixing and blending of various raw materials, including cement, aggregates (such as sand and gravel), water, and sometimes admixtures or additives. The specific production techniques may vary depending on the desired properties and applications of the final product, but generally involve batching, mixing, and curing processes to achieve the desired strength, durability, and workability characteristics.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the 382450 industry include cement, aggregates (sand, gravel, crushed stone), water, and various admixtures or additives (such as plasticizers, accelerators, or retarders). Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment for the mixing, batching, and transportation of the materials. The availability and quality of these raw materials and production resources are crucial factors in the industry's ability to meet the demand for high-quality mortars and concretes.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the 382450 industry are diverse types of mortars and concretes, which are then consumed by various other industries and applications. These products are widely used in the construction of buildings, infrastructure (such as roads, bridges, and dams), and other civil engineering projects. The outputs of the 382450 industry may also be further processed or combined with other materials to create specialized construction products, such as 382490 Mortars and concretes, n.e.c. or 681011 Building blocks and bricks of cement, concrete or artificial stone.
