How to read SIC 23700
SIC 23700 reads as division 23 (manufacture of other non-metallic mineral products), group 237, class 2370, then the full five digits, inside section C, manufacturing. A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 23700 is the company's own description of what it does, and 1,190 list it first where 1,255 list it anywhere.
Who sells into division 23
This is a construction-adjacent division and most of its buyers are the same: plant and tooling suppliers, aggregate and raw material merchants, haulage, and the insurers who cover heavy machinery.

Are kitchen worktop fitters in 23700?
Often, yes, if they cut and finish the stone themselves. 23700 covers cutting, shaping and finishing, which is what a worktop fabricator does. A business that only installs pre-made tops fits better in a division 43 construction code. Plenty of firms do both and list one of each.
