HS Code 8413.40 – Pumps; concrete pumps
HS code 8413.40 is the 6-digit subheading for pumps, concrete pumps. It is used for truck-mounted concrete pumps, stationary concrete pumps, trailer-mounted concrete pumps, line pumps and boom pumps.
What HS 8413.40 covers
This HS code specifically covers concrete pumps, which are specialized machines used to transfer liquid concrete by pumping. This category is indispensable for the construction industry, enabling efficient and rapid placement of concrete in various building projects, from high-rise structures to infrastructure development. Key importers include construction companies, equipment rental firms, and infrastructure development agencies. Exporters are typically manufacturers of heavy construction machinery. The trade emphasizes robust design, high pumping capacity, reach (for boom pumps), and reliability in demanding construction environments. Technological advancements focus on improving efficiency, reducing emissions, and enhancing remote control capabilities. The global demand for concrete pumps is directly linked to construction activity, urbanization trends, and infrastructure investments worldwide, making them a vital component of modern building practices. Their ability to deliver concrete to difficult-to-reach areas significantly improves project timelines and labor efficiency.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
