HS v2022 Code: 853939

About lamps; discharge, (excluding ultra-violet, excluding fluorescent, hot cathode)

HS code 853939 covers a range of discharge lamps, excluding ultraviolet, fluorescent, and hot cathode types. These lamps are widely used in various industrial, commercial, and residential applications, playing a crucial role in lighting solutions across diverse sectors. As a key component in the broader lighting industry, this product category contributes significantly to the global economy, supporting energy-efficient and sustainable illumination practices.

Production process

The production of discharge lamps under HS code 853939 typically involves a multi-step process. Manufacturers begin by fabricating the lamp's glass or ceramic envelope, which serves as the housing for the internal components. Next, electrodes are installed, and the envelope is filled with a specific gas mixture, often containing noble gases like argon or xenon. The final step involves sealing the lamp and incorporating any additional features, such as reflectors or diffusers, to optimize the light output and distribution.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of discharge lamps under HS code 853939 include glass or ceramic materials for the lamp envelope, electrodes made from conductive metals, and specialized gases for the internal filling. Additionally, manufacturers may utilize various types of machinery and equipment, such as glass-blowing tools, vacuum systems, and automated assembly lines, to ensure efficient and consistent production.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 853939 is a diverse range of discharge lamps, which find applications in various sectors. These lamps may be used in 853931 Lamps; fluorescent, hot cathode lighting systems, 853910 Lamps; sealed beam for vehicle headlights, and 853921 Lamps; mercury vapour for industrial and commercial lighting. The versatility of these discharge lamps allows them to be integrated into a wide array of lighting solutions, contributing to the overall illumination needs of the global market.
