What changes in SIC 2026
ONS published UK SIC 2026 in 2026. Its correspondence table maps this code's class (16.29) to:
| SIC 2026 code | Heading | Link type |
|---|---|---|
| 15.20 | Manufacture of footwear | 1:4 |
| 16.26 | Manufacture of solid fuels from vegetable biomass | 1:4 |
| 16.27 | Finishing of wooden products | 1:4 |
| 16.28 | Manufacture of other products of wood and articles of cork, straw and plaiting materials | 1:4 |
"1:1" means the class carries over unchanged in scope; other link types mean it was split or merged. Companies House still uses SIC 2007, so keep filing with 16290 until it announces a switch.
