Manufacture of structural metal products

isic code 2511 covers the manufacture of structural metal products, which are essential components in the construction, infrastructure, and industrial sectors. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader economy, providing the necessary building blocks for a wide range of projects, from residential and commercial buildings to bridges, power plants, and manufacturing facilities. The structural metal products industry is a key driver of economic growth, contributing to job creation, investment, and the development of advanced manufacturing techniques.

The production of structural metal products typically involves a series of metalworking processes, including cutting, bending, welding, and assembling. Manufacturers may use a variety of techniques, such as 2410 Manufacture of basic iron and steel and 2420 Manufacture of basic precious and other non-ferrous metals, to shape and fabricate the raw materials into the desired structural components. Advanced technologies, such as computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-numerical control (CNC) machinery, are often employed to ensure precision, efficiency, and consistency in the manufacturing process.

The primary inputs for the manufacture of structural metal products include 2410 Manufacture of basic iron and steel, 2420 Manufacture of basic precious and other non-ferrous metals, and various other metal alloys. Manufacturers may also require specialized equipment, such as cutting tools, welding machines, and lifting devices, as well as a skilled workforce capable of operating these technologies and executing the necessary metalworking techniques.

The structural metal products manufactured under isic code 2511 are used in a wide range of applications, including the construction of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure, as well as in the production of industrial machinery, equipment, and transportation vehicles. The outputs of this industry are often consumed by 4100 Construction of buildings, 4200 Civil engineering, and 2910 Manufacture of motor vehicles, among other related industries.
