Manufacture of fabricated metal products, except machinery and equipment

NACE v2.0 Code: C25

About manufacture of fabricated metal products, except machinery and equipment

NACE code 25 covers the manufacture of a wide range of fabricated metal products, excluding the production of machinery and equipment. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader manufacturing sector, providing essential components and parts for various industries. From construction and automotive to consumer goods and renewable energy, the fabricated metal products industry is a vital contributor to the global economy.

Production process

The production of fabricated metal products typically involves a range of metalworking techniques, such as cutting, bending, welding, and assembling. Manufacturers in this industry may utilize a combination of manual and automated processes, depending on the complexity and scale of the products being made. Advanced technologies, including computer-numerical control (CNC) machines and robotic systems, are increasingly being adopted to improve efficiency and precision.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the fabricated metal products industry include a variety of raw materials, such as steel, aluminum, and other metal alloys. Manufacturers also rely on specialized machinery, tools, and equipment to shape, join, and finish the metal components. Additionally, the industry requires skilled labor, including welders, machinists, and assembly workers, to ensure the quality and consistency of the final products.

Production outputs

The fabricated metal products industry produces a diverse range of outputs, including structural metal products, metal containers, hardware, springs, and wire products. These outputs are then consumed by various other NACE codes, such as 41 Construction of buildings, 29 Manufacture of motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers, and 27 Manufacture of electrical equipment. The fabricated metal products industry is a crucial supplier to many downstream industries, enabling the production of a wide range of goods and infrastructure.
