Manufacture of lighting equipment

NACE v2.1 Code: C27.4

About manufacture of lighting equipment

NACE code 27.4 covers the manufacture of lighting equipment, a critical industry that plays a vital role in the broader economy. Lighting is essential for homes, businesses, and public spaces, enabling activities and enhancing safety and ambiance. The lighting equipment manufacturing sector is responsible for producing a wide range of products, from basic light bulbs to advanced LED systems, catering to diverse applications across various industries.

Production process

The manufacture of lighting equipment typically involves several key production steps. This includes the assembly of components such as lamp holders, reflectors, and diffusers, as well as the integration of electrical and electronic parts like sockets, switches, and control systems. Advanced techniques like injection molding and precision engineering are often employed to ensure the quality and durability of the final products.

Production inputs

The lighting equipment manufacturing industry relies on a range of raw materials and resources. This includes glass, metals (such as aluminum and steel), plastics, and electronic components like semiconductors and integrated circuits. Specialized machinery and tools are also essential for the various manufacturing processes involved, from glass blowing to circuit board assembly.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the lighting equipment manufacturing industry are a diverse range of lighting products, including incandescent, fluorescent, and LED lamps, as well as luminaires, chandeliers, and other lighting fixtures. These outputs are consumed by a wide variety of other NACE codes, such as 43.21 Electrical installation, 47.5 Retail sale of household goods, and 81.2 Cleaning activities, among others, as they are essential for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
