Manufacture of tobacco products

NACE v2.0 Code: C12

About manufacture of tobacco products

NACE code 12 covers the manufacture of tobacco products, a vital industry that plays a significant role in the global economy. Tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigars, and other smokeless alternatives, are widely consumed worldwide, making this industry an important contributor to both national and international trade. The manufacture of tobacco products involves complex processes and specialized techniques to ensure consistent quality and compliance with various regulations.

Production process

The production of tobacco products typically begins with the curing and processing of raw tobacco leaves. This process involves drying, fermentation, and blending to achieve the desired flavor and aroma profiles. Cigarette manufacturing then involves the cutting, shredding, and rolling of the processed tobacco into paper or other wrapping materials. Advanced machinery is used to ensure precise measurements, consistent density, and efficient packaging of the final products.

Production inputs

The manufacture of tobacco products requires a range of inputs, including high-quality tobacco leaves, specialized machinery and equipment, and various packaging materials such as paper, filters, and adhesives. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce to operate the production lines and maintain quality control standards. Energy sources, such as electricity and natural gas, are also essential for powering the manufacturing facilities and drying processes.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the tobacco products industry are cigarettes, cigars, and other smokeless tobacco products. These outputs are then distributed and sold to a wide range of consumers, including 46 Wholesale trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles and 47 Retail trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles. The tobacco industry also generates a significant amount of tax revenue for governments, making it an important contributor to the broader economy.
