5704.20.00 - Tiles, having a maximum surface area exceeding 0.3m2 but not exceeding 1m2

This category encompasses felt tiles designed for floor coverings, distinguished by their size. Specifically, these tiles are characterized by having a maximum surface area greater than 0.3 square meters but not exceeding 1 square meter. The material composition for these tiles is typically felt, and they are not tufted or flocked.

The primary distinction between this heading and its sibling, 5704.10.00, lies in the maximum surface area of the tiles. While 5704.10.00 covers felt tiles with a maximum surface area of 0.3 square meters or less, this heading specifically addresses larger tiles. The sibling category 5704.90.01, "Other," would likely cover felt floor coverings that do not meet the specific dimensional criteria of the tile categories.

Within this category, further subdivisions exist to account for material variations. Subcategories 5704.20.00.10 and 5704.20.00.90 differentiate based on whether the felt tiles are made of wool or fine animal hair, or are of other materials, respectively. This detailed breakdown facilitates more precise classification based on the fiber content of the felt.
