Manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products

NACE v2.0 Code: C23

About manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products

NACE code 23 covers the manufacture of a wide range of non-metallic mineral products, including glass, ceramics, cement, and other construction materials. This industry plays a crucial role in the global economy, providing essential raw materials and components for the construction, infrastructure, and manufacturing sectors. Its products are fundamental to the development and maintenance of modern societies.

Production process

The production techniques used in this industry vary depending on the specific product, but generally involve the extraction, processing, and transformation of non-metallic mineral resources. Common processes include mining, crushing, grinding, melting, molding, and firing. Advanced technologies, such as automation and computer-controlled systems, are increasingly being adopted to improve efficiency and quality.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the manufacture of non-metallic mineral products include raw materials such as sand, clay, limestone, and various mineral ores. Specialized machinery and equipment, such as kilns, furnaces, and molding machines, are also essential. Energy sources, such as electricity, natural gas, or coal, are needed to power the production processes. Additionally, skilled labor, including engineers, technicians, and operators, is crucial for the industry.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of this industry include a diverse range of products, such as 23.1 Manufacture of glass and glass products, 23.2 Manufacture of refractory products, 23.3 Manufacture of clay building materials, 23.5 Manufacture of cement, lime and plaster, and 23.6 Manufacture of articles of concrete, cement and plaster. These materials are widely used in the construction, infrastructure, and manufacturing sectors, as well as in various other industries.
