Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If no plastic coating and meets kraftliner Mullen burst specs
Uncoated kraft paper with required strength parameters falls under 4804.11.
If coated with polymers other than polyethylene, like polypropylene
Specific polymer types may dictate subheading within 4811.5.
If for bulk plastic film imported separately from paper
Pure plastic films without paper base classify under Chapter 39.
