Organic coated steel for appliances is galvanized steel sheet with an epoxy or polyester organic coating, supplied in widths exceeding 600 mm. The organic layer is applied over the zinc coating, making it 'further worked' than simply plated or coated steel. It is classified under tariff item 7210.90.00 as other flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel, clad, plated or coated.

Import Tips
• Ensure the steel width exceeds 600 mm and that the organic coating is applied over a zinc coating to qualify for this item
• Keep mill test certificates showing the base metal is non-alloy steel, as alloy steel would fall under a different heading
• Verify whether the organic coating contains any substances regulated under Canada's chemicals management plan
