Boilers; parts of steam or other vapour generating boilers

HS v2022 Code: 840290

About boilers; parts of steam or other vapour generating boilers

HS code 840290 covers boilers and their parts, which are essential components in the generation of steam and other vapors. These boilers play a crucial role in a wide range of industries, from power generation and manufacturing to heating and processing applications. As a key part of the broader machinery and equipment sector, the boiler industry is a significant contributor to the global economy, enabling the efficient production and distribution of essential resources and services.

Production process

The production of boilers and their parts typically involves a multi-step process. This includes the fabrication of the boiler shell, the installation of heat exchange tubes, the assembly of various internal components, and the integration of control systems and safety features. Manufacturers often utilize advanced welding techniques, precision machining, and rigorous quality control measures to ensure the durability, efficiency, and safety of the final products.

Production inputs

The boiler industry relies on a range of raw materials, including steel, copper, and various alloys, as well as specialized components such as valves, pumps, and instrumentation. Additionally, the industry requires access to advanced manufacturing equipment, such as CNC machines, welding equipment, and testing facilities. Skilled labor, including engineers, technicians, and fabricators, is also a critical input for the production of high-quality boilers and their parts.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 840290 is the boilers themselves, which are then consumed by a variety of other industries, including 271000 Manufacture of basic chemicals, fertilizers and nitrogen compounds, plastics and synthetic rubber in primary forms, 281000 Manufacture of basic metals, and 351100 Electric power generation, transmission and distribution. These boilers are essential for generating the steam and heat required in various industrial processes, as well as for powering electricity generation and providing heating in commercial and residential buildings.
