Regenerated Cellulose Foam Packaging Sheets from Germany
These cellular sheets made from regenerated cellulose, such as viscose-derived foam, are used for protective packaging of fragile electronics and cosmetics. They fall under HTS 3921.14.00.00 due to their foamed, cellular structure and composition primarily from regenerated cellulose polymer meeting the 95% monomer content rule.

Import Tips
• Verify polymer composition via lab testing to confirm 95%+ regenerated cellulose content per subheading notes to avoid reclassification
• Provide certificates of analysis documenting cellular structure and material origin for CBP review
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as non-cellular film, which shifts to 3921.12 or 3921.13
