HS v2022 Code: 440139

About wood; for fuel, sawdust and wood waste and scrap, agglomerated in logs or similar forms, other than wood pellets or wood briquettes

HS code 440139 covers a range of wood products used primarily as fuel. This includes sawdust, wood waste, and scrap that has been agglomerated into logs or similar forms. These materials are an important source of renewable energy, particularly for industries and communities that have access to abundant wood resources. The trade in these wood fuels plays a significant role in the global energy and forestry sectors.

Production process

The production of the goods covered by HS code 440139 typically involves the collection and processing of various wood waste streams. This can include sawmill byproducts, forest residues, and other wood scrap. The materials are then compressed or agglomerated into uniform logs or briquettes, often using binders or adhesives. Advanced processing techniques may also involve drying, pelletizing, or other methods to improve the density and consistency of the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of goods under HS code 440139 are the raw wood materials, such as sawdust, wood chips, and forestry residues. Specialized machinery and equipment for the collection, processing, and agglomeration of these materials are also essential. Depending on the specific production methods, binders, adhesives, or other additives may be required as well.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 440139 is wood fuel in the form of agglomerated logs, briquettes, or similar forms. These products are commonly used for residential, commercial, and industrial heating, as well as for power generation. The outputs of this industry may be consumed by a variety of other HS codes, including 271011 Petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals, other than crude; preparations not elsewhere specified or included, containing by weight 70% or more of petroleum oils or of oils obtained from bituminous minerals, these oils being the basic constituents of the preparations; waste oils, 271019 Petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals, other than crude; preparations not elsewhere specified or included, containing by weight 70% or more of petroleum oils or of oils obtained from bituminous minerals, these oils being the basic constituents of the preparations; other than waste oils, and 271112 Petroleum gases and other gaseous hydrocarbons; liquefied, propane, among others.
