Sen Face Ply Hardwood Plywood Panel

This plywood panel features a face ply of sen (Kalopanax spp.) wood, with inner plies of mixed nonconiferous hardwoods, each not exceeding 6mm thick. It qualifies under HTS 4412.33.32.35 because it has at least one outer ply of specified nonconiferous wood (sen) and is not surface-covered in a way that obscures the natural grain. Ideal for custom cabinetry and high-end furniture where the unique sen wood grain is showcased.

Import Tips & Compliance

Obtain botanical certification verifying the face ply as sen (Kalopanax spp.) to avoid reclassification during customs exam

Ensure all plies are documented as ≤6mm thick with no bamboo; provide mill test reports for species composition

Avoid opaque surface coverings; transparent finishes are allowed only if grain remains visible per heading requirements
