Bamboo Cross-Laminated Timber Panels from Mexico
Bamboo cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels are structural panels made by layering bamboo lumber strips in orthogonal directions and bonding them with adhesives. They are used for walls, floors, and roofs in building construction. These panels are classified under tariff item 4418.91.00 as builders' joinery of bamboo, given their prefabricated structural nature.

Import Tips
• Provide evidence that the panels are engineered for structural use, as this supports classification as joinery
• Ensure the adhesive used meets Canadian standards for indoor air quality
• Confirm the panels are not simply laminated wood, which might fall under a different heading
