Biodegradable Skeet Targets from China
Eco-friendly skeet targets made from compressed plant fibers and binders that break down naturally after use. Designed for clay pigeon shooting in environmentally sensitive areas, they fall under HTS 9506.99.3500 due to their specific function as skeet targets. They provide the same flight and shatter properties as traditional clay pigeons.

Import Tips
• Provide biodegradability test reports (e.g
• ASTM standards) to support sports equipment claim over general waste materials
• Ensure packaging specifies 'for skeet shooting only' to prevent classification as compostable goods elsewhere
