Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

1501Lower: 10% vs 35%

If from pig or other non-wool animal sources

End-use material source determines animal fat heading; wool-specific to 1505.

1522.00.00.00Lower: 21.3% vs 35%

If sold as wool grease residues for industrial recovery

Chapter note covers dregs and residues separately from crude grease.

1505.00.90.00Higher: 37.4% vs 35%

If for semi-processed lanolin fractions

State of completion beyond crude shifts within the heading.

Crude Wool Grease Extract

Crude wool grease extract is the unrefined fatty substance obtained directly from sheep's wool during the scouring process, containing lanolin and impurities. It falls under HTS 1505.00.10.00 as crude wool grease, prior to any refining or purification steps. This greasy byproduct is valued for its lanolin content used in cosmetics and leather treatments.

Raw Lanolin Wool Grease

Raw lanolin wool grease is the crude, unprocessed fatty wax separated from wool fibers in the washing process, rich in cholesterol and esters. Classified under HTS 1505.00.10.00 specifically for its crude state before deodorizing or decolorizing. It's a key raw material for pharmaceuticals and skincare emulsions.

Unrefined Sheep Wool Scouring Grease

Unrefined sheep wool scouring grease is the sticky, crude fatty emulsion recovered from washing raw sheep wool, loaded with natural waxes. It matches HTS 1505.00.10.00 as the primary crude form of wool grease before separation into lanolin. Commonly imported for further extraction in leather and textile industries.

Crude Lanolin-Rich Wool Wax

Crude lanolin-rich wool wax is the unpurified greasy secretion harvested from sheep fleece during industrial scouring. It is precisely covered by HTS 1505.00.10.00 as crude wool grease, the starting material for anhydrous lanolin production. Used in ointments, rust preventives, and ballistics grease.

Industrial Crude Wool Grease Pellets

Industrial crude wool grease pellets are crudely formed chunks of wool scouring grease for easier bulk handling, still unrefined. They qualify under HTS 1505.00.10.00 as the crude form without purification. Primarily imported for lanolin recovery in cosmetics manufacturing.
