Clay-Coated Kraft Linerboard Sheets from Mexico

Rectangular sheets of kraft linerboard (150 g/m²) coated on both sides with china clay, with one side exceeding 36 cm and the other exceeding 15 cm in the unfolded state. The base paper has at least 80% sulfate fibers and meets the Mullen bursting strength requirements for kraftliner, but the kaolin coating places it under this tariff item.

Import Tips

• Ensure the sheets meet the size thresholds (one side >36 cm, other >15 cm) and that the base paper qualifies as kraftliner per subheading note 1

• Declare the coating as kaolin or other inorganic substance

• Keep mill certificates showing fiber composition and Mullen strength for CBSA verification
