About wood; coniferous species, of fir (abies spp.) and spruce (picea spp.), sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded or finger-jointed, of a thickness exceeding 6mm

HS code 440712 covers a range of coniferous wood products, primarily from fir (Abies spp.) and spruce (Picea spp.) trees. These materials are essential inputs for various industries, including construction, furniture manufacturing, and packaging. As a major global supplier of timber, this industry plays a crucial role in the international trade of raw materials and semi-finished wood products.

Production process

The production of goods under HS code 440712 typically involves sawing, chipping, slicing, or peeling coniferous wood logs to create boards, planks, and other shaped wood products. These materials may then be further processed through planing, sanding, or finger-jointing to meet specific customer requirements. The production techniques used can vary depending on the end-use application and the desired characteristics of the final product.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of goods under HS code 440712 include coniferous tree logs, primarily from fir (Abies spp.) and spruce (Picea spp.) species. Additionally, specialized machinery such as sawmills, planers, and sanders are essential for the various processing steps. Energy sources, such as electricity or fuel, are also necessary to power the production equipment.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 440712 are sawn or chipped coniferous wood products, including boards, planks, and other shaped wood items. These materials are often used as inputs for the construction industry, where they are used in framing, flooring, and other building applications. Additionally, the output of this industry may be consumed by the 440710 Wood; coniferous species, sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded or finger-jointed, of a thickness not exceeding 6mm industry, as well as the furniture and packaging sectors.
