About sacks and bags; of a kind used for the packing of goods, of man-made textile materials, flexible intermediate bulk containers

HS code 630532 covers a crucial segment of the global textile and packaging industry - the production of sacks and bags made from man-made textile materials, specifically designed for the packing and transportation of goods. These flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs) play a vital role in the efficient movement of commodities, raw materials, and finished products across international trade routes, supporting the broader import/export ecosystem.

Production process

The manufacturing of HS 630532 sacks and bags typically involves a multi-step process. First, the man-made textile materials, such as polypropylene or polyethylene, are woven into a durable fabric. This fabric is then cut and sewn into the desired bag or sack shape, often incorporating reinforced panels, handles, and other specialized features to enhance strength and functionality. Advanced techniques like heat sealing may also be employed to ensure the containers are airtight and weatherproof.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of HS 630532 sacks and bags are man-made textile materials, primarily polypropylene and polyethylene. Manufacturers also require sewing machines, cutting tools, and other specialized equipment to transform the raw materials into the final products. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce capable of operating the machinery and executing the various production steps with precision.

Production outputs

The main output of HS 630532 is the flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs) themselves, which are used for the packing and transportation of a wide range of goods, including 100190 Wheat and meslin, 270112 Bituminous coal, and 440122 Wood in chips or particles.
