Dry, Condensed, & Evaporated Dairy Product Manufacturing

Code 311514 covers establishments that manufacture dairy products in dry, condensed, or evaporated forms, including both dairy-based and dairy substitute versions of these products. This code is distinct from fluid milk manufacturing, which produces liquid milk and cream products; creamery butter manufacturing, which produces butter; and cheese manufacturing, which produces cheese. The key boundary is the physical form and processing method: 311514 encompasses only those establishments whose primary activity is removing moisture from milk or creating shelf-stable concentrated dairy products.
