What 25 includes

• This division includes the manufacture of products made of "pure" metal (e.g., parts, containers, structures), usually with a static, fixed function. This contrasts with divisions 26-30, which concern combinations or assemblies of such metal products (sometimes with other materials) into more complex units that, unless purely electrical, electronic, or optical, operate with moving parts.
• This division also includes the manufacture of products made of composite materials in which metals are the predominant material.
• The manufacture of weapons and ammunition also falls under this division.

What 25 excludes

• Specialized maintenance and repair activities for works, machinery, and equipment made of metal, see 33.1
• Specialized installation of machinery and other manufactured products in buildings (e.g., central heating boilers), see 43.22
