Ceramic Heat Insulating Roof Tiles from China
Fired ceramic roofing tiles designed with insulating properties to reduce heat transfer in buildings, made from clay-based materials fired above 800°C. They classify under HTS 6905.90.0010 as ceramic constructional goods that are heat insulating, distinct from non-insulating tiles in 6905.10. Description aligns with Chapter 69 requirements for fired ceramic products used in construction.
