Structural Ceramic Filler Panels from Mexico
Structural ceramic filler panels are pre-shaped fired ceramic panels used as fillers in structural insulated panels for energy-efficient buildings. They are fired at high temperatures to achieve structural integrity and provide support within the panel system. These panels qualify under tariff item 6904.90.20 as support or filler tiles, as they are fired ceramic products not classified as flooring blocks.

Import Tips
• Ensure the panels are fired after shaping, as unfired or low-temperature products are excluded from Chapter 69
• Provide technical specifications showing the firing temperature and the panel's function as a filler or support element
• Verify that the panels are not classifiable as prefabricated buildings (Chapter 94) or electrical insulating fittings (heading 8547), which would change the classification
