Glassware of a kind used for table or kitchen purposes (not drinking glasses), of glass having a linear coefficient of expansion not exceeding 5 x 10 (to the minus 6), (or 0.000005) per Kelvin within a temperature range of 0-300 degrees C

HS v2022 Code: 701342

About glassware of a kind used for table or kitchen purposes (not drinking glasses), of glass having a linear coefficient of expansion not exceeding 5 x 10 (to the minus 6), (or 0.000005) per kelvin within a temperature range of 0-300 degrees c

HS code 701342 covers a specific type of glassware used for table and kitchen purposes, excluding drinking glasses. This category of glassware is characterized by its low linear coefficient of expansion, making it highly resistant to thermal stress and suitable for a wide range of culinary applications. As a key component in the tableware and kitchenware industry, this specialized glassware plays a vital role in the broader consumer goods sector, catering to the needs of households and commercial establishments alike.

Production process

The production of glassware under HS code 701342 typically involves a combination of traditional glass-making techniques and advanced manufacturing processes. The raw materials, including high-quality silica sand, are carefully selected and melted at high temperatures to form the molten glass. The glass is then shaped using methods such as pressing, blowing, or casting, depending on the desired form and design. Precise temperature control and annealing processes are crucial to ensure the low linear coefficient of expansion, which is a defining characteristic of this type of glassware.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of HS code 701342 glassware include high-purity silica sand, various mineral additives (such as alumina, lime, and soda ash), and specialized machinery for glass shaping and finishing. Additionally, the manufacturing process may require energy sources, such as natural gas or electricity, to maintain the high temperatures necessary for glass melting and forming. Skilled labor, with expertise in glass production and quality control, is also a critical input for this industry.

Production outputs

The main output of HS code 701342 is a diverse range of glassware products designed for table and kitchen use, excluding drinking glasses. These items may include plates, bowls, serving dishes, bakeware, and other specialized culinary containers. The low thermal expansion properties of this glassware make it suitable for a variety of applications, including oven-to-table use, microwave-safe cooking, and dishwasher-safe cleaning. The output of this industry is often consumed by 940510 Lamps and lighting fittings, 821110 Sets of assorted kitchen or tableware, and 392410 Tableware and kitchenware of plastics.
