NACE v2.0 Code: C16.1
About sawmilling and planing of wood
NACE code 16.1 covers the sawmilling and planing of wood, a crucial industry that transforms raw timber into a wide range of essential wood products. This industry plays a vital role in the construction, furniture, and packaging sectors, providing the fundamental materials that enable the production of homes, furniture, and a host of other wood-based goods. As a key supplier to many other industries, the sawmilling and wood planing sector is an integral part of the broader economy.
Production process
The primary production techniques used in this industry involve the mechanical processing of logs and timber. This typically begins with the sawing of logs into rough-cut lumber, boards, and planks of various dimensions. The sawn wood is then further processed through planing, sanding, and trimming to create smooth, uniform wood products. Advanced techniques like kiln-drying may also be employed to enhance the quality and stability of the final outputs.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the sawmilling and wood planing industry include raw timber, typically sourced from forestry operations 02.1 Silviculture and other forestry activities. Specialized woodworking machinery, such as saws, planers, and sanders, are also essential for the production process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce with expertise in operating the necessary equipment and machinery.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of the sawmilling and wood planing industry include a diverse range of sawn and planed wood products, such as lumber, boards, and planks. These outputs are then consumed by various other industries, including 16.2 Manufacture of products of wood, cork, straw and plaiting materials, 31.0 Manufacture of furniture, and 16.23 Manufacture of other builders' carpentry and joinery, which use these wood products as raw materials for their own manufacturing processes.
