Manufacture of other chemical products n.e.c.

NACE code 20.59 covers the manufacture of a diverse range of chemical products that do not fall under any other specific NACE category. This industry plays a vital role in supporting various downstream sectors, from agriculture and pharmaceuticals to construction and consumer goods. Its outputs contribute significantly to the overall chemical industry, which is a key driver of economic growth and innovation.

The production techniques used in this industry can vary widely depending on the specific chemical products being manufactured. Common methods include chemical synthesis, blending, mixing, and formulation. Advanced technologies such as continuous flow chemistry and process intensification are increasingly being adopted to improve efficiency, quality, and sustainability.

The main inputs required for the manufacture of other chemical products n.e.c. include a diverse range of raw materials, such as organic and inorganic chemicals, solvents, catalysts, and additives. Specialized equipment, such as reactors, distillation columns, and mixing vessels, are also essential for the production process. Additionally, skilled labor, energy, and water resources are important inputs for this industry.

The outputs of this industry encompass a wide variety of chemical products, including adhesives, explosives, propellants, chemical preparations for photographic uses, and other miscellaneous chemical products. These outputs are often used as intermediate inputs for 20.11 Chemical industry, 20.12 Manufacture of dyes and pigments, 20.13 Manufacture of other inorganic basic chemicals, and 20.14 Manufacture of other organic basic chemicals, among other downstream industries.
