Which code does this activity belong in?

Code 32611 covers establishments that convert plastics resins into film and sheet or form those materials into bags, including coating and laminating operations for bag production. The boundary with 32613 turns on the end product: 32611 classifies laminated plastics specifically for packaging applications, while 32613 covers laminated plastics plate, sheet, and shapes used for non-packaging purposes. Code 32611 does not include manufacturing of finished containers like bottles, which are classified in 32616, nor profile shapes like pipes and rods, which belong in 32612.
