Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If new, unused sheets or plates
Wrought zinc sheets and plates, even thin, are under Chapter 79 heading 7905 for finished products, not scrap.
If backed with asphalt or bitumen for roofing
Zinc panels assembled with panels of other materials for building fall under Chapter 68 as composite panels.
If containing residual pesticides from agricultural roofing
Waste containing organic pesticides shifts to Chapter 38 for hazardous chemical residues.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Clean scrap of roofing compounds or paints to maintain classification as metal scrap; contaminated material risks Chapter 38 hazardous waste
• Use bill of lading specifying 'zinc scrap from demolition' to support waste status over wrought products
• Check for anti-dumping duties if originating from specific countries with ongoing investigations on galvanized products
