HS v2022 Code: 721069

About iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, plated or coated with aluminium, other than plated or coated with aluminium zinc-alloys

HS code 721069 covers a crucial segment of the steel industry, encompassing flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel products that are plated or coated with aluminum. These materials play a vital role in a wide range of industries, from construction and automotive to packaging and consumer goods. Their versatility and durability make them indispensable in the global economy.

Production process

The production of the materials covered by HS code 721069 typically involves a multi-step process. First, iron or non-alloy steel is rolled into flat sheets or plates, often using advanced rolling mills. These flat-rolled products are then subjected to a plating or coating process, where a layer of aluminum is applied to the surface. This coating enhances the material's corrosion resistance, appearance, and other desirable properties, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of the materials covered by HS code 721069 include iron or non-alloy steel, as well as aluminum for the plating or coating process. Specialized rolling mills, coating equipment, and other manufacturing machinery are also essential. Additionally, energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are needed to power the production facilities.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 721069 are flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel products that are plated or coated with aluminum. These materials are often used in the manufacture of 721010 Iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled products, width 600mm or more, hot-rolled, not clad, plated or coated, 721050 (Iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled products, width 600mm or more, cold-rolled (cold-reduced), not clad, plated or coated), and 721070 Iron or non-alloy steel; flat-rolled, width 600mm or more, plated or coated with zinc, among other related codes.
