Manufacture Of Pesticides And Other Agrochemical Products

Details for Manufacture Of Pesticides And Other Agrochemical Products

The code identifies businesses involved in manufacture of pesticides and other agrochemical products, whether that is delivered as a core trading operation or as a specialist service line. In plain English, it is likely to include manufacturers, workshops, processors, fabricators, producers and industrial suppliers, with day-to-day activity often involving materials, production runs, quality control, machinery, components, packaging and supply-chain delivery. As of June 2026, 20200 ranks 511th out of 731 five-digit SIC codes, with 643 UK companies registered under it, making it a specialist or niche sector on the UK register.

Because a UK company may register up to four SIC codes at Companies House, a business can pair this activity with other relevant codes where its operations span several markets or revenue streams. The short official label is deliberately compact, so the real-world businesses behind it may describe themselves using broader phrases such as manufacture of pesticides and other agrochemical products services, specialist manufacture of pesticides and other agrochemical products providers, operators in related supply chains, or companies supporting customers who need this form of commercial activity. The Standard Industrial Classification has a long UK history, dating back to the 1940s, although the version used for modern company filings changed when Companies House replaced 4-digit SIC 2003 entries with 5-digit SIC 2007 codes in 2008–2009, in step with NACE Rev.

2. Taken together with location, age, filing history and other SIC selections, this code can help build a more rounded view of the market in which the company appears to operate. In practical terms, the code helps separate this kind of work from neighbouring sectors that may look similar in search results but involve different trading models, assets, customers or regulatory expectations.

It is also useful for analysts, lenders, marketers and public bodies because it gives a consistent way to group companies by declared activity, even though the description is not a licence, approval or guarantee of what a company actually does day to day. A company using this code might be newly incorporated, dormant, small and owner-managed, or part of a larger group, so the SIC entry should normally be read alongside accounts, confirmation statements, websites and other commercial signals.
