Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If treated with chemicals for higher purity
Any chemical treatment classifies it as chemical pulp under 4706.92, not mechanical.
If semi-chemical process used on recovered fibers
Semi-chemical pulping from recovered sources may fall under Chapter 47 semi-bleached coniferous pulps if applicable.
If derived primarily from non-paper cellulosic waste like bamboo
Other fibrous cellulosic materials exclude paperboard, directing to 4707 subheadings.
