Bush-Hammered Quartzite Treads from United States

Quartzite treads with a bush-hammered texture to enhance grip in exterior stair applications. The mechanical surface working qualifies them under tariff item 6802.99.00 as other processed quartzite building stone, distinct from merely cut slabs.

Import Tips

• Specify the bush-hammered finish on the commercial invoice, as this working distinguishes the product from unworked stone

• Verify the quartzite is not slate, which is excluded from heading 68.02 by note 2

• Consider whether the treads meet Canadian building codes for slip resistance, as CBSA may request test reports
