Frequently asked questions
I manufacture labelling machines and filling machines for packaging lines — does this code apply, or the one for weighing machines?
Yes, machines for filling, sealing, capping, and labelling belong in 28.29.30, along with packaging and wrapping machines. The logic is that they form part of the packaging line. If instead you manufacture equipment for weighing goods, the correct code is 28.29.10.
My machines specifically package food and beverages — do I stay here or move to food machinery?
It depends on what the machine does. If it packages, fills, and labels in a general way — including food products — it stays in 28.29.30. If instead it processes or transforms the food product itself (mixing, cooking, industrial preparation), the correct classification is 28.93.00. This code also covers machines for cleaning or drying bottles and for carbonating beverages.
I manufacture cartoning and overwrapping machines that form cardboard boxes at the end of the line — does this code apply, or the one for paper machinery?
Yes, 28.29.30. Machines that package and wrap a finished product — including forming the cardboard box at the end of the line — are packaging machines. The key point is that they use cardboard as packaging material. Machines that produce or cut paper and cardboard as a material are a different sector and fall under 28.95.00.
I manufacture capping machines and blister-packaging machines for the pharmaceutical industry — do they fall under this packaging code?
Usually yes. Machines for filling, sealing, capping, and labelling fall under 28.29.30 even when they dose capsules or tablets into blister packs. The criterion is that they package an already-finished product. If instead the machine weighs or counts components by weight, the relevant code is the weighing and parts-counting category at 28.29.10.
