Manufacture of man-made fibres
What this code covers
Use this class for manufacture of man-made fibres when the main activity includes Manufacture of synthetic or artificial filament tow and Manufacture of synthetic or artificial staple fibres, not carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Official NACE Rev. 2.1 labels and explanatory notes are imported from the source dataset. Plain-language explanations are shown separately so readers can compare interpretation with the source text.
No child codes; this is a class-level code.
- manufacture of synthetic or artificial filament tow
- manufacture of synthetic or artificial staple fibres, not carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning
- manufacture of synthetic or artificial filament yarn, including high-tenacity yarn
- manufacture of synthetic or artificial monofilament or strip
- spinning of synthetic or artificial fibres, see 13.10
- manufacture of yarns made of man-made staple, see 13.10
- manufacture of carbon fibres, see 23.99
- Compare with 13.10, 23.99, 20.6 when the main activity overlaps another code.
- Check national equivalent caveats before using this code for local registration or filing workflows.
- If the main revenue activity appears in an exclusion, compare the alternative code before deciding.

What is NACE 20.60 used for?
Use NACE 20.60 for manufacture of man-made fibres when the main activity matches this scope: Use this class for manufacture of man-made fibres when the main activity includes Manufacture of synthetic or artificial filament tow and Manufacture of synthetic or artificial staple fibres, not carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
What are typical examples for 20.60?
Typical examples include Manufacture of synthetic or artificial filament tow, Manufacture of synthetic or artificial staple fibres, not carded, combed or otherwise processed for spinning, and Manufacture of synthetic or artificial filament yarn, including high-tenacity yarn.
When might 20.60 not be the right code?
Review another code when the activity is closer to spinning of synthetic or artificial fibres, see 13.10 and manufacture of yarns made of man-made staple, see 13.10.
Which codes should I compare before choosing 20.60?
Compare 20.60 with 13.10 Preparation and spinning of textile fibres, 23.99 Manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products n.e.c., and 20.6 Manufacture of man-made fibres when the activity description is ambiguous.
Use this class for preparation and spinning of textile fibres when the main activity includes Preparatory operations on textile fibres: and Reeling and washing of silk. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this class for manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products n.e.c. when the main activity includes Manufacture of friction material and unmounted articles thereof with a base of mineral substances or of cellulose and Manufacture of mineral insulating materials. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Use this group for the broader activity area of manufacture of man-made fibres, including Manufacture of man-made fibres. Open the child codes when a more specific code is needed.
Rev. 2 code 20.60 maps to the same Rev. 2.1 class 20.60 Manufacture of man-made fibres.

Low operational impact is expected, but systems should still store the target Rev. 2.1 version explicitly.
Confirm the target version field and update references where Rev. 2.1 is required.
