Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If plastic content is 70% or less by weight

If imported as floor tiles rather than wall/ceiling coverings
Chapter note 9 defines wall/ceiling specifically; floor applications fall under builders' ware plates/tiles.
If predominantly textile-backed with minimal plastic coating
If textile predominates, classifies as coated textile wall coverings under Chapter 59, not plastics chapter.
