3207.40.50.00 - Other 🖩

This classification, 3207.40.50.00, encompasses glass frit and other glass materials in powder, granular, or flake form that do not fall under the "ground or pulverized" sibling category. These materials are intended for use in the ceramic, enamelling, or glass industries, serving as essential components for creating specialized finishes and products. The "Other" designation signifies that this category includes preparations which are not specifically processed by grinding or pulverization as their primary characteristic, but still meet the criteria of being glass in particulate form for industrial applications.

The key distinction from the sibling category 3207.40.10.00 lies in the processing method. While both involve glass in particulate form, this "Other" category is for those preparations that are not defined solely by their state of being ground or pulverized. This could include materials that are naturally occurring in granular or flake forms, or those that have undergone processes other than simple grinding to achieve their desired particle size and consistency for industrial use.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 3207.40.50.00 will depend on a thorough examination of the product's physical state, intended industrial application within the ceramic, enamelling, or glass sectors, and confirmation that it is not classifiable under any more specific provision. Examples might include specific granulations of glass powders for decorative tile glazes or frit prepared in a specific flake form for specialized glass manufacturing.
