Frequently asked questions

I produce synthetic yarns and fibres — should I use the ATECO code for synthetic fibres or for textile spinning?
Here, if you manufacture the synthetic or artificial fibre itself: filaments, tow, and single yarns before any preparation for textile spinning. This is a chemical activity, not a textile one. Once the fibre exists and you prepare, card, and spin it for textile use, the activity moves to 13.10.00.
I recycle PET and turn it into fibres — does this fall here or under waste management?
Yes, here: the activities explicitly include the manufacture of recycled fibres. The deciding factor is that the finished product is the fibre. If instead your work is collecting, sorting, and processing plastic waste without producing fibre, that is waste management and does not fall within this manufacturing division.
I produce fibres used to reinforce composite materials — should I use the ATECO code for synthetic fibres or glass fibres?
It depends on the fibre material. If it is a polymeric synthetic or artificial fibre — including fibres for technical applications — stay here. If the fibre is made of glass, even when destined for reinforcement purposes, the correct code is the one for glass fibre manufacture 23.14.00.
I produce the base polymer granules, not yet the fibre — does this code apply to me?
No, this code only applies once you reach fibres, filaments, or yarns. The production of a polymer or primary plastic material in granule form is basic chemistry and falls under 20.16.00. When you extrude and spin the synthetic filament from that polymer, you move into this category.
