7016.90.10.50 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 7016.90.10.50, encompasses "Other" articles of pressed or molded glass, specifically those used for building or construction purposes, that are not bricks or blocks. This includes a variety of pressed or molded glass items that are designed for integration into construction projects. Examples could range from specialized decorative glass tiles and panels, designed for façade applications or interior wall coverings, to more utilitarian, custom-shaped glass elements used in architectural features. The key determinant is that the item is formed by pressing or molding glass and serves a function within a building or construction context.

It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 7016.90.10.10, which is specifically reserved for "Bricks and blocks" of pressed or molded glass. While both fall under the broader scope of pressed or molded glass for construction, this "Other" classification captures those items that do not fit the typical definition of a brick or a block. This differentiation is based on the form, size, and intended application of the glass product, ensuring that items with distinct architectural or structural roles are correctly classified.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 7016.90.10.50 relies on a thorough examination of whether the pressed or molded glass article is indeed intended for building or construction purposes and does not meet the specific criteria for bricks and blocks. The presence of any wiring within the glass does not preclude classification here, provided the primary function remains for construction.
