HS v2022 Code: 847780

About machinery; for working rubber or plastics or for the manufacture of products from these materials, n.e.c. in this chapter

HS code 847780 covers a diverse range of machinery used in the production and processing of rubber and plastic products. This industry plays a crucial role in the global manufacturing landscape, providing essential equipment for industries ranging from automotive and construction to consumer goods and packaging. The machinery classified under this code is integral to the transformation of raw materials into a wide array of finished products that are integral to modern life.

Production process

The machinery described by HS code 847780 encompasses a variety of production techniques, including injection molding, extrusion, compression molding, and thermoforming. These processes involve the use of specialized equipment to melt, shape, and cool raw materials such as thermoplastics, thermosets, and elastomers, transforming them into the desired final products.

Production inputs

The primary inputs required for the machinery covered by HS code 847780 include a range of raw materials, such as 390110 Polyethylene, linear, having a specific gravity of less than 0.94, 390120 Polyethylene, having a specific gravity of 0.94 or more, 390130 Ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, and various rubber compounds. Additionally, these machines require specialized components, such as molds, dies, and control systems, as well as a skilled workforce capable of operating and maintaining the equipment.

Production outputs

The machinery described by HS code 847780 is used to produce a wide range of rubber and plastic products, including 401110 New pneumatic tyres, of rubber, 392010 Plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of polymers of ethylene, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials, 392020 Plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of polymers of propylene, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials, and 392030 Plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of polymers of styrene, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials. These products are then consumed by a variety of downstream industries, such as automotive, packaging, and construction.
