Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If made mainly of unbleached hardwood semichemical fibers instead of straw
Semichemical fluting paper under 4805.11 requires ≥65% unbleached hardwood fibers with CMT>1.8 N/g/m², changing pulp source heading.
If made mainly from recovered waste paper pulp
Fluting paper from recycled pulp falls under 4805.24 with Mullen burst index ≥2 kPa·m²/g, differing from virgin straw pulp.
If in rolls >115 g/m² but classified as sack kraft paper
Sack kraft requires ≥80% sulfate/soda wood fibers with specific burst/tear specs, not straw pulp.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify CMT 30 crush resistance >1.4 N/g/m² via lab testing; provide test reports to CBP for classification confirmation
• Ensure documentation proves ≥ main straw pulp content from mech/chem process and weight ≤150 g/m² to avoid reclassification
