6810.19.12.00 - Of stone agglomerated with binders other than cement 🖩

This HTS category, 6810.19.12.00, specifically covers articles of cement, concrete, or artificial stone that are *not* reinforced and utilize binders *other than cement*. This means the goods are constructed from agglomerated materials, where the binding agent is something like resin, lime, or bitumen, rather than Portland cement or similar hydraulic cements. Examples include decorative tiles, paving stones, or pre-cast elements made from crushed stone, sand, or other mineral aggregates bound together by non-cementitious substances.

The primary distinction within the "Floor and wall tiles" subcategory lies in the binding agent used. While this classification (6810.19.12.00) focuses on tiles bound by materials other than cement, its sibling category, 6810.19.14.00, covers "Other" floor and wall tiles. This implies that sibling category would encompass tiles not covered by 6810.19.12.00, potentially including those made with cement binders or those that are reinforced if they fall under a different broader heading not detailed here.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 6810.19.12.00. Classification at this level is determined by the presence of the specific characteristics: being an article of cement, concrete, or artificial stone; being in the form of tiles, flagstones, bricks, or similar articles; not being reinforced; and crucially, being agglomerated with binders *other than cement*.
