Beech Cellular Wood Panels
Lightweight panels made from beech wood with a cellular core structure, used in furniture and interior partitions for their strength-to-weight ratio. Classified under HTS 4418.92.00.00 as cellular wood panels, which feature an internal honeycomb or foam-like wood cellular structure distinct from solid or laminated panels.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If made from assembled wood veneers without cellular core
Plywood with veneers >6mm thick falls under heading 4412, lacking the foamed/cellular internal structure.
If assembled into builders' joinery like door frames
Pre-assembled joinery products move to other subheadings within 4418, not raw cellular panels.
If core uses significant non-wood binders exceeding wood content
Panels of agglomerated materials (not primarily wood) classify under Chapter 68 as other articles.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify cellular structure meets definition (honeycomb/foamed core) via cross-section samples to avoid misclassification as laminated panels
• Provide mill certificates confirming 100% wood composition (no bamboo unless declared as woody material per Chapter 44 note)
• Label species accurately (e.g
• Fagus sylvatica for beech) to comply with Lacey Act declarations for protected woods
