HS v2022 Code: 853932

About lamps; discharge, (excluding ultra-violet), mercury or sodium vapour lamps, metal halide lamps

HS code 853932 covers a range of discharge lamps, excluding ultraviolet lamps, that are widely used in various industries and applications. These lamps are known for their energy efficiency, long lifespan, and ability to produce high-quality illumination. They play a crucial role in lighting up commercial, industrial, and public spaces, contributing to the overall efficiency and functionality of the built environment.

Production process

The production of discharge lamps under HS code 853932 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the glass or ceramic envelope is manufactured, which serves as the main housing for the lamp. Next, the electrodes and gas-filling components are assembled inside the envelope. The lamp is then sealed and undergoes various testing and quality control measures to ensure its performance and safety. Finally, the lamps are packaged and prepared for distribution to various end-users.

Production inputs

The key inputs required for the production of discharge lamps under HS code 853932 include glass or ceramic materials for the envelope, metals such as tungsten or molybdenum for the electrodes, and specialized gases like mercury, sodium, or metal halides. Additionally, the manufacturing process requires specialized equipment, such as vacuum chambers, sealing machines, and testing apparatus. Skilled labor with technical expertise in lamp production is also an essential input for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 853932 is a range of discharge lamps, including mercury vapor lamps, sodium vapor lamps, and metal halide lamps. These lamps are widely used in 853931 Lamps; fluorescent, hot cathode and 853910 Lamps; sealed beam lamp units applications, as well as in 940520 Lamps and lighting fittings; electric table, desk, bedside or floor-standing lamps and 940540 Lamps and lighting fittings; other electric lamps and lighting fittings industries.
