About wood; in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, untreated, n.e.c. in heading no. 4403

HS code 440399 covers a broad range of untreated wood products in the rough, including logs, timber, and other unprocessed wood materials. This industry is a crucial part of the global forestry and timber trade, providing essential raw materials for a wide range of downstream industries such as construction, furniture manufacturing, and paper production. The trade in these unfinished wood products is a significant contributor to the international economy, with countries rich in forestry resources playing a major role in global supply chains.

Production process

The production of goods under HS code 440399 typically involves the harvesting and initial processing of timber from forests and plantations. This can include felling trees, removing bark and sapwood, and roughly squaring the logs to prepare them for further processing or transport. The specific techniques used may vary depending on the type of wood, the intended end-use, and the local forestry practices in different regions.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of goods under HS code 440399 are the raw wood materials, which can come from a variety of tree species and sources. This includes logs, timber, and other unprocessed wood products harvested from both natural forests and managed plantations. In addition to the wood itself, the industry may also rely on specialized logging and transportation equipment, as well as labor for the harvesting and initial processing operations.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 440399 are various types of untreated, unfinished wood products in the rough form. These may include 440320 Wood; in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, 440341 Wood; in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, of Dark Red Meranti, Light Red Meranti and Meranti Bakau, and 440349 Wood; in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, of other tropical wood. These outputs are then typically consumed by other industries, such as 440710 Wood; sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed, of a thickness exceeding 6 mm, 940161 Seats; with wooden frames, upholstered, and 480100 Newsprint, in rolls or sheets.
