Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as whole trays for recycling, not flaked
Unflaked trays are plastic articles of PET, not scrap under 3923.
If tray material is PET copolymer <95% pure
Subheading notes require 95% for specific PET; others go to general 'Other'.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Sort by food-grade status for REACH compliance in EU re-export; watch for label residues causing contamination
• Common issue: oversized flakes may be viewed as unfinished sheets
