Manufacture of clay building materials
ISIC v4.0 Code: 2392
About manufacture of clay building materials
isic code 2392 covers the manufacture of clay building materials, an essential industry that plays a crucial role in the construction and infrastructure sectors. This industry is responsible for producing a wide range of products, including bricks, tiles, and other clay-based construction materials, which are vital for the development and maintenance of buildings, roads, and other structures. As a key component of the broader construction industry, the manufacture of clay building materials contributes significantly to economic growth and development.
Production process
The production of clay building materials typically involves several key steps. First, the raw clay material is extracted from natural deposits and transported to the manufacturing facility. The clay is then processed, often through a process of crushing, grinding, and mixing, to prepare it for shaping. The shaped clay products are then dried and fired in high-temperature kilns, which give them their characteristic hardness and durability. Finally, the finished products are inspected, packaged, and distributed to construction sites and other end-users.
Production inputs
The manufacture of clay building materials requires several key inputs, including raw clay materials, energy sources for firing the kilns (such as natural gas or coal), and specialized machinery for processing and shaping the clay. Additionally, this industry may rely on other inputs, such as water for processing, and various additives or coatings to enhance the properties of the final products.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of the manufacture of clay building materials (isic code 2392) are bricks, tiles, and other clay-based construction products. These outputs are then consumed by the 4100 Construction of buildings, 4200 Civil engineering, and 4300 Specialized construction activities industries, which use these materials in the construction and renovation of buildings, infrastructure, and other structures.
