What changes in SIC 2026
ONS published UK SIC 2026 in 2026. Its correspondence table maps this code's class (28.49) to:
| SIC 2026 code | Heading | Link type |
|---|---|---|
| 27.90 | Manufacture of other electrical equipment | 1:3 |
| 28.41 | Manufacture of metal forming machinery and machine tools for metal work | 1:3 |
| 28.42 | Manufacture of other machine tools | 1:3 |
"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 28490 until it announces a switch.
