About wood, tropical; as specified in subheading note 2 to this chapter, dark red meranti, light red meranti and meranti bakau, in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, untreated

HS code 440341 covers a range of tropical wood products, including dark red meranti, light red meranti, and meranti bakau. These wood types are widely used in construction, furniture manufacturing, and various other industries due to their durability, aesthetic appeal, and versatility. As a significant component of the global timber trade, this industry plays a crucial role in supporting economic activities across multiple sectors.

Production process

The production of wood products under HS code 440341 typically involves harvesting the tropical trees, either in the rough or after being roughly squared. The logs may or may not be stripped of bark or sapwood, depending on the intended use. Once harvested, the wood is often dried, treated, and processed into various shapes and sizes to meet the specific requirements of different applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs for the production of HS code 440341 wood products include the tropical trees themselves, which are the primary raw material. Additionally, machinery and equipment for logging, transportation, and processing the wood are essential inputs. Energy sources, such as fuel for logging equipment and power for processing facilities, are also necessary for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS code 440341 are the various forms of tropical wood, including dark red meranti, light red meranti, and meranti bakau. These wood products are often used in the construction industry, as they are suitable for structural applications, 440320 Wood, non-coniferous, in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, 440349 Wood, non-coniferous, in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, other than treated with paint, stains, creosote or other preservatives, and 440710 Wood, sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed, of a thickness exceeding 6 mm; coniferous.
