Manufacture of central heating radiators and boilers

NACE v2.0 Code: C25.21

About manufacture of central heating radiators and boilers

NACE code 25.21 covers the manufacture of central heating radiators and boilers, a critical industry that plays a vital role in the broader economy. These products are essential components in residential, commercial, and industrial heating systems, providing warmth and comfort to buildings across various sectors. As energy efficiency and environmental concerns continue to drive innovation, the central heating radiator and boiler industry is poised to evolve, contributing to the transition towards more sustainable heating solutions.

Production process

The production of central heating radiators and boilers typically involves a series of metalworking processes. This includes the cutting, shaping, and welding of metal sheets or tubes to form the radiator or boiler body. Specialized machinery is used to ensure precise dimensions and a high-quality finish. The assembly process may also involve the integration of valves, controls, and other components to create a fully functional heating unit.

Production inputs

The central heating radiator and boiler industry relies on a range of raw materials, primarily various types of metal, such as steel, cast iron, and aluminum. These materials are sourced from 24.10 Manufacture of basic iron and steel and 24.42 Aluminium production. Additionally, the industry utilizes various components, including valves, controls, and insulation materials, which are supplied by other manufacturing sectors.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the central heating radiator and boiler industry are the finished products, which are then distributed and installed in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. These heating units are essential for 43.22 Plumbing, heat and air-conditioning installation and 43.29 Other construction installation activities, as well as the broader 41.20 Construction of residential and non-residential buildings and 42.21 Construction of utility projects for fluids sectors.
