4410.19.00 - Other

This HTS category, "Other" under 4410.19.00, encompasses particle board, oriented strand board (OSB), and similar boards made from wood or other ligneous materials. These materials are agglomerated using resins or other organic binding substances. This "Other" classification is specifically for products that do not fall under the more precisely defined categories of "Particle board" (4410.11.00) or "Oriented strand board (OSB)" (4410.12.00) at the same heading level.

The distinction from sibling categories lies in the specific construction or characteristics of the board. While 4410.11.00 covers standard particle board and 4410.12.00 is reserved for OSB, this "Other" category is a catch-all for similar wood-based panel products that do not precisely match those definitions. This could include waferboard or other less common engineered wood composite boards.

The subcategories under 4410.19.00 further refine classification based on the processing or surface treatment of these "other" boards. For instance, subcategories exist for boards that are unworked or simply sanded, or those that have been covered with specific materials like melamine-impregnated paper or decorative plastic laminates. This allows for precise identification of the finished product and its subsequent duty treatment.
