HS v2022 Code: 700330

About glass; cast glass and rolled glass, profiles, not otherwise worked

HS code 700330 covers a range of glass products, including cast glass and rolled glass in the form of profiles. These glass products are widely used in various industries, from construction and architecture to automotive and furniture manufacturing. They play a crucial role in the global economy, providing essential materials for a diverse array of applications.

Production process

The production of glass products under HS code 700330 typically involves two main techniques: casting and rolling. In the casting process, molten glass is poured into molds to create the desired shape and profile. The rolled glass process involves passing the molten glass through rollers to produce flat or shaped glass sheets. These techniques allow for the creation of a wide variety of glass profiles, each with unique properties and applications.

Production inputs

The production of glass products under HS code 700330 requires several key inputs, including raw materials such as silica sand, soda ash, and limestone. Specialized machinery, such as glass furnaces, molds, and rolling equipment, is also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, energy sources, such as natural gas or electricity, are needed to heat and melt the raw materials, as well as to power the production equipment.

Production outputs

The glass products covered by HS code 700330 are used in a variety of industries and applications. They can be further processed or incorporated into a wide range of finished goods, including 700510 Glass; float glass and surface ground or polished glass, in sheets, but not otherwise worked, 700600 Glass; of heading 7003, 7004 or 7005, bent, edge-worked, engraved, drilled, enamelled or otherwise worked, but not framed or fitted with other materials, and 701990 Glass; articles n.e.c. in chapter 70. These glass products are essential for the construction, automotive, and furniture industries, among others.
