Poultry incubators and brooders

HS v2022 Code: 843621

About poultry incubators and brooders

HS code 843621 covers the production of poultry incubators and brooders, which are essential equipment for the poultry industry. These specialized devices play a crucial role in the hatching and rearing of chicks, ensuring the efficient and sustainable growth of the global poultry supply. As a key component of modern poultry farming, the poultry incubator and brooder industry is closely tied to the broader agricultural sector and its economic significance.

Production process

The production of poultry incubators and brooders involves a range of specialized manufacturing techniques. Manufacturers typically utilize advanced temperature and humidity control systems, along with carefully designed airflow mechanisms, to create the optimal environment for egg incubation and chick development. The assembly of these devices often includes the integration of electronic monitoring and control systems, as well as the use of durable, high-quality materials to ensure the longevity and reliability of the equipment.

Production inputs

The poultry incubator and brooder industry relies on a variety of inputs, including specialized electronic components, climate control systems, and high-quality materials such as metals, plastics, and insulation. Manufacturers may also require access to skilled labor, engineering expertise, and advanced manufacturing capabilities to produce these complex and technologically advanced devices. Additionally, the industry may utilize 854370 Electrical and electronic control apparatus and 842139 Other filtering or purifying machinery and apparatus for gases to support the production process.

Production outputs

The primary output of the poultry incubator and brooder industry is, of course, the incubators and brooders themselves. These devices are essential for the 010511 Live fowl of the species Gallus domesticus, weighing not more than 185 g and 010512 Live turkeys industries, as they provide the controlled environment necessary for the successful hatching and rearing of chicks. The incubators and brooders produced under HS code 843621 may also be consumed by 010519 Other live poultry producers, as well as those involved in the 010600 Other live animals trade.
