HS Code 8435.10 – Presses, crushers and similar machinery; used in the manufacture of wine, cider, fruit juices or similar beverages

HS code 8435.10 is the 6-digit subheading for presses, crushers and similar machinery, used in the manufacture of wine, cider, fruit juices or similar beverages. It is used for grape presses, apple crushers, hydraulic fruit presses, pneumatic wine presses and destemmer-crushers.

What HS 8435.10 covers

This HS code covers specialized machinery designed for the initial stages of beverage production, specifically for extracting juice from fruits for wine, cider, fruit juices, and similar drinks. This includes presses, crushers, and destemmers that prepare raw fruit for fermentation or direct consumption. Importers are typically wineries, cideries, fruit juice manufacturers, and craft beverage producers looking to process large volumes of fruit efficiently. Exporters are often manufacturers of food and beverage processing equipment, frequently from regions with strong viticulture or fruit farming traditions. Key considerations in this trade include the capacity of the machinery, the gentleness of the pressing action to preserve juice quality, and compliance with food safety and hygiene standards. The global demand for natural fruit-based beverages and alcoholic drinks drives the market for these essential machines.

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).
