NACE v2.1 Code: C16.2

About manufacture of products of wood, cork, straw and plaiting materials

NACE code 16.2 covers the manufacture of a wide range of products derived from wood, cork, straw, and other natural plaiting materials. This industry plays a vital role in the global economy, providing essential raw materials and semi-finished goods to various downstream sectors, including construction, furniture production, and packaging. The industry's output is crucial for meeting the growing demand for sustainable, environmentally-friendly materials in an increasingly eco-conscious world.

Production process

The production techniques used in this industry typically involve a combination of mechanical and manual processes. Key steps include sawing, planing, and shaping of wood and other materials, as well as weaving, braiding, and assembling of plaited products. Advanced technologies, such as computer-controlled woodworking machinery, are often employed to enhance efficiency and precision in the manufacturing process.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for this industry are raw materials, including logs, sawn timber, cork, straw, and various types of plaiting materials. Manufacturers also rely on a range of machinery and tools, such as saws, lathes, and weaving equipment, as well as energy sources and skilled labor to operate the production facilities.

Production outputs

The main outputs of NACE code 16.2 include a diverse range of products, such as wooden and cork-based construction materials, furniture components, packaging items, and decorative or functional plaited goods. These outputs are then consumed by various other industries, including 16.1 Sawmilling and planing of wood, 31.0 Manufacture of furniture, and 17.2 Manufacture of articles of paper and paperboard.
