About furniture; of rattan

HS code 940383 covers furniture made of rattan, a type of tropical palm that is widely used in the production of various household and commercial items. The rattan furniture industry is an important part of the global furniture trade, providing durable, attractive, and environmentally-friendly products to consumers around the world. This industry plays a significant role in the economies of several developing countries, where rattan is a readily available natural resource.

Production process

Rattan furniture is typically produced through a labor-intensive process that involves harvesting, weaving, and finishing. Rattan stems are harvested from plantations or wild growth, then cleaned, split, and woven into the desired shapes and designs. The woven frames are then reinforced with additional rattan or other materials, and the final products are often finished with varnishes, paints, or other treatments to enhance their appearance and durability.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the rattan furniture industry are the rattan stems themselves, which are the main raw material. Additionally, the industry requires various tools and equipment for harvesting, processing, and weaving the rattan, as well as finishing materials such as paints, varnishes, and adhesives. Skilled labor is also a critical input, as the production process often involves intricate manual techniques.

Production outputs

The primary output of the rattan furniture industry is, of course, rattan furniture itself, which can include a wide range of products such as chairs, tables, beds, and other household and commercial furnishings. These rattan furniture items may be consumed by 940310 Furniture; seats, convertible into beds or 940360 Furniture; wooden, n.e.c. in heading no. 9403, among other related furniture codes.
