Engineered Bamboo Gable Roof Trusses from Mexico
Engineered bamboo gable roof trusses are factory-assembled triangular framing units designed to support the sloped end of a roof. They are made from finger-jointed bamboo members, which are joined and shaped to provide structural integrity. These trusses qualify as builders' joinery of bamboo under tariff item 4418.91.00 because they are prefabricated wood products used in construction.

Import Tips
• Ensure the trusses are made of bamboo and qualify as builders' joinery; provide structural engineering documentation if requested by CBSA
• Verify that the bamboo has been treated against pests, as untreated wood may require phytosanitary certification
• Confirm the shipment is classified under 4418.91.00 to avoid reclassification and potential penalties
