About packing cases, boxes, crates, drums and similar packings, of wood; cable-drums of wood; pallets, box pallets and other load boards, of wood; pallet collars of wood

HS code 4415 covers a diverse range of wooden packaging products that are essential for the efficient transportation and storage of goods across various industries. These products play a crucial role in the global supply chain, facilitating the safe and secure movement of commodities, raw materials, and finished goods around the world. The 4415 industry is a vital component of the broader logistics and distribution sector, contributing to the smooth operation of international trade and commerce.

Production process

The production of 4415 wooden packaging items typically involves a combination of woodworking techniques, such as sawing, planing, and joining. Manufacturers may use both manual and automated processes to cut, shape, and assemble the various components, ensuring consistent quality and efficiency. The use of specialized machinery, such as CNC routers and automated nailing or stapling equipment, has become increasingly common in the industry, allowing for the mass production of standardized packaging solutions.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the 4415 industry include raw timber, wood panels, and various hardware components, such as nails, screws, and fasteners. Manufacturers may source their timber from domestic or international suppliers, depending on the availability and quality of the wood species required for their products. In addition to the physical materials, the industry also relies on skilled labor, specialized equipment, and efficient logistics to transform the raw inputs into finished packaging solutions.

Production outputs

The 4415 industry produces a wide range of wooden packaging products, including packing cases, boxes, crates, drums, cable-drums, pallets, and pallet collars. These outputs are then consumed by a diverse range of industries, such as 4401 Fuel wood, wood in chips or particles; sawdust and wood waste and scrap, whether or not agglomerated in logs, briquettes, pellets or similar forms, 4403 Wood in the rough, whether or not stripped of bark or sapwood, or roughly squared, and 4407 Wood sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded or end-jointed, of a thickness exceeding 6 mm, as well as various manufacturing, logistics, and retail sectors that require reliable and durable packaging solutions.
