About plastics; plates, sheets, film, foil and strip (not self-adhesive), of polycarbonates, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials

HS code 392061 covers a wide range of plastic products, including plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip made from polycarbonates. These materials are non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported, or combined with other materials. The polycarbonate industry is a crucial component of the broader plastics sector, providing essential raw materials for a variety of industries, from construction and electronics to automotive and packaging.

Production process

The production of polycarbonate plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip typically involves a multi-step process. First, polycarbonate resin is melted and extruded into the desired shape and thickness. The extruded material is then cooled and cut to size, or further processed through techniques like calendering or thermoforming to create the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 392061 items include polycarbonate resin, which is the primary raw material. Additionally, specialized machinery, such as extruders, calenders, and thermoforming equipment, is necessary to shape and form the polycarbonate into the desired products. Energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are also crucial inputs for the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS code 392061 are polycarbonate plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip, which are then consumed by a wide range of industries. These materials may be used in the production of 392010 Plastics; plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of polymers of ethylene, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials, 392020 Plastics; plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of polymers of propylene, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials, or 392030 Plastics; plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of polymers of styrene, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials, among other plastic products.
