Low-E Coated Float Glass Sheet 6mm Thick from Germany
Float glass sheet measuring 6mm in thickness with a low-emissivity (low-E) coating, which is a microscopically thin metal oxide layer that reflects infrared light while maintaining transparency. This nonwired glass is surface polished and measures over 0.65 m², fitting 7005.29.18.50 as it is not otherwise worked beyond the permitted reflecting layer. Commonly used in energy-efficient windows.

Import Tips
• Verify the reflective layer qualifies under chapter note (c) as a thin metal or oxide coating to avoid reclassification
• Provide mill test certificates confirming thickness (5-10mm) and area (>0.65m²) for customs valuation
• Ensure sheets are not edge-worked or shaped, as cutting to shape is allowed but further work shifts to heading 7007
