4418.73.60.00 - Of unidirectional bamboo

This HTS category, 4418.73.60.00, specifically classifies assembled flooring panels that are primarily constructed from unidirectional bamboo. Unidirectional bamboo refers to bamboo processed in a way that aligns its fibers predominantly in one direction, contributing to specific structural and aesthetic properties in the finished flooring. These panels are designed for use in building construction and are characterized by their multilayered construction and the presence of bamboo as a key component.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 4418.73.70.00, which covers "Other" assembled flooring panels. While both fall under the broader umbrella of multilayered bamboo flooring, this specific code isolates those where the unidirectional nature of the bamboo is a defining feature. This distinction is important for tariff purposes, as it acknowledges the particular manufacturing process and material characteristics of unidirectional bamboo flooring.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the classification of a product under 4418.73.60.00 relies on confirming that it is an assembled flooring panel, it is multilayered, it includes bamboo, and crucially, that the bamboo used exhibits unidirectional properties. This detailed specification ensures accurate import and export declarations for this specialized type of flooring.
