Fire-Resistant Wired Glass Sheets from Germany
Fire-resistant wired glass sheets are designed to hold glass intact during heat exposure, featuring an embedded wire mesh and a surface-ground finish with a reflecting layer. The reflecting layer qualifies under Chapter Note 2(c), and the wired construction places them in tariff item 7005.30.00. They are not otherwise worked, making them suitable for fire-rated glazing applications.

Import Tips
• Confirm the reflecting layer is microscopically thin and meets the definition in Note 2(c), as thicker coatings may alter classification
• Document the fire-resistance rating and wire mesh specifications for CBSA
• Ensure the glass is not further worked, such as cutting to shape with finished edges, which could affect classification
