Products classified under HTS 1701.14.20.00
Industrial Raw Cane Sugar for Polyhydric Alcohol Production
Raw cane sugar with sucrose content corresponding to a polarimeter reading of 93° or more but less than 99.5°, imported specifically for non-distillation production of polyhydric alcohols like sorbitol used in industrial applications. It meets the criteria of subheading 1701.14 as 'other sugar' designated for this purpose, excluding food substitute alcohols. Requires USDA licensing to ensure end-use compliance.
Specialty Raw Cane Sugar for Mannitol Manufacturing
High-purity raw cane sugar selected for conversion into mannitol via polyhydric alcohol processes in pharmaceuticals and food tech, with polarimeter reading 93-99.5°. Falls under HTS 1701.14.20.00 due to its designated use excluding human food sugar substitutes, per USDA entry requirements. Licensed for industrial processing only.
Refinery-Grade Raw Cane Sugar for Re-Export
Raw cane sugar intended for U.S. refining then re-export in refined form or sugar products, meeting 93-99.5° polarimeter specs without added flavors. Classified in 1701.14.20.00 for substitution of domestic sugar exports, requiring USDA oversight and bonds. Not for domestic consumption.
Polyol Production Raw Cane Sugar Pellets
Pelleted raw cane sugar optimized for industrial polyhydric alcohol production like xylitol, solid form with precise sucrose levels under 99.5°. Enters under 1701.14.20.00 with restrictions against food substitutes, licensed for chemical processing. Ensures efficient dissolution in manufacturing.
Export Substitution Raw Cane Sugar Grade A
Grade A raw cane sugar for substituting exported domestic cane sugar, solid form suitable for refining or polyhydric use excluding food alcohols. Meets HTS 1701.14.20.00 specs with 93-99.5° reading, under strict USDA licensing. Facilitates trade balancing.
Sorbitol Feedstock Raw Cane Sugar
Raw cane sugar feedstock for sorbitol production via hydrogenation (non-distillation), polarimeter 93-99.5°, licensed under 1701.14.20.00 for industrial polyhydric alcohols not as sugar substitutes. Used in non-food chemical sectors.
Refined Re-Export Raw Beet Sugar Equivalent
Raw equivalent beet sugar for refining and re-export or polyhydric production, though primarily cane-focused subheading applies via hierarchy. 93-99.5° sucrose, USDA licensed per 1701.14.20.00 for substitution programs.
Industrial Xylitol Precursor Cane Sugar
Cane sugar precursor for xylitol polyhydric alcohol synthesis, solid raw form under 99.5° polarimeter, restricted via 1701.14.20.00 licensing to non-food uses. Supports chemical industry processing.
Bonded Warehouse Raw Cane Sugar for Processing
Raw cane sugar entered into bonded warehouses for polyhydric conversion or re-export refining, 1701.14.20.00 compliant with USDA terms. Polarimeter specs ensure raw status for quota.
