HS v2022 Code: 441239

About plywood; consisting only of sheets of wood (not bamboo), each ply 6mm or thinner, with both outer plies of coniferous wood

HS code 441239 covers a specific type of plywood that is composed entirely of wood sheets, each with a thickness of 6mm or less, and with both outer layers made from coniferous wood. This type of plywood is widely used in the construction, furniture, and packaging industries due to its durability, versatility, and cost-effectiveness. As a key component in various manufacturing processes, the trade and production of 441239 plywood plays a significant role in the global economy.

Production process

The production of 441239 plywood typically involves a multi-step process. First, thin sheets of coniferous wood are carefully selected and prepared. These sheets are then layered in a specific orientation, with the grain of each layer running perpendicular to the one above it. The layers are then bonded together using adhesives, creating a strong and stable plywood panel. Finally, the panels may undergo additional processing, such as sanding or cutting, to meet the specific requirements of the end-user.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of 441239 plywood include coniferous wood, adhesives, and specialized machinery. Coniferous wood species, such as pine, fir, and spruce, are commonly used due to their availability, strength, and aesthetic properties. The adhesives used to bond the wood layers must be durable and able to withstand environmental factors, such as moisture and temperature changes. Additionally, the production process requires specialized equipment, including wood veneer slicers, panel presses, and sanding machines, to ensure consistent quality and efficiency.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 441239 is plywood panels that are suitable for a wide range of applications, including construction, furniture manufacturing, and packaging. These plywood panels may be further processed or incorporated into other products, such as 441213 Plywood, veneered panels and similar laminated wood, 940320 Furniture, wooden, for the bedroom, and 441600 Prefabricated buildings. The versatility and durability of 441239 plywood make it a valuable commodity in both domestic and international trade.
