Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If pine species not specifically listed
Other coniferous wood in the rough falls under different pine subheadings if not Southern yellow pine varieties.
If sawn lengthwise and thickness over 6mm
Once processed into sawn lumber, it moves from 'rough' heading 4403 to coniferous sawn wood in 4407.
If processed into wood pellets
Agglomerated by-products like sawdust from this pine become fuel pellets under 4401.
