Western Red Cedar Shingles from Mexico

These are sawn wood shingles made from Western red cedar (Thuja plicata), typically used for roofing and siding on residential buildings. They fall under HTS 4418.50.0030 as 'other shingles' because they are not the traditional handsplit type but machine-sawn, meeting the definition of builders' joinery and carpentry shingles excluding shakes.
