NAICS 236210
What is the NAICS code 236210?
The NAICS code 236210 is applied to those industries related to Industrial Building Construction.
This industry comprises establishments primarily responsible for the construction (including new work, additions, alterations, maintenance, and repairs) of industrial buildings (except warehouses). The construction of selected additional structures, whose production processes are similar to those for industrial buildings (e.g., incinerators, cement plants, blast furnaces, and similar nonbuilding structures), is included in this industry. Included in this industry are industrial building general contractors, industrial building for-sale builders, industrial building design-build firms, and industrial building construction management firms.
Illustrative examples:
- Assembly plant construction
- Furnace, industrial plant, construction
- Cannery construction
- Mine loading and discharging station construction
- Cement plant construction
- Paper or pulp mill construction
- Steel mill construction
- Chemical plant (except petrochemical) construction
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing plant construction
- Factory construction
- Food processing plant construction
- Waste disposal plant (except sewage treatment) construction
Therefore, all companies engaged in any industrial activity related to this type of business are grouped under category 236210 in the North American Industry Classification System.
This industrial activity of NAICS code is structured as follows:
- 23 - Construction
- 236 - Construction of Buildings
- 2362 - Nonresidential Building Construction
- 23621 - Industrial Building Construction
- 236210 - Industrial Building Construction
