201400 Manufacture of other organic basic chemicals


This type includes the manufacture of chemicals using basic processes, such as thermal cracking and distillation. The output of these processes are usually separate chemical elements or separate chemically defined compounds.

This type includes:

  • manufacture of basic organic chemicals:
  • acyclic hydrocarbons, saturated and unsaturated
  • cyclic hydrocarbons, saturated and unsaturated
  • acyclic and cyclic alcohols
  • mono- and polycarboxylic acids, including acetic acid
  • other oxygen-function compounds, including aldehydes, ketones, quinones and dual or poly oxygen-function compounds
  • synthetic glycerol
  • nitrogen-function organic compounds, including amines
  • fermentation of sugarcane, corn or similar to produce alcohol and esters
  • other organic compounds, including wood distillation products (e.g. charcoal), etc.
  • manufacture of synthetic aromatic products
  • distillation of coal tar

This type excludes:

  • manufacture of plastics in primary forms (see 201600)
  • manufacture of synthetic rubber in primary forms (see 201700)
  • manufacture of crude glycerol (see 204100)
  • manufacture of natural essential oils (see 205300)
  • manufacture of salicylic and O-acetylsalicylic acids (see 211000)

Codification rules

Priority in case of multiple activities

If production, repair and sales activities are carried out, the priority is as follows :

- if production and sale: production takes priority
- if production and repair: production takes priority
- if repair and sale: repair takes priority

Outsourced activities (outsourcing)

There are several types of outsourcing, the enterprise may outsource::
• Part of a production process, classification: production
• All of a production process
o & owner of commodities, classification: production
o & non-owner of commodities, classification: section G, M or N :

For a construction enterprise:
• Part of the construction activities, classification: construction - section F
