Trade Court Sides With CBP's Classification of Net Wraps

The Court of International Trade in an Oct. 4 opinion found that CBP correctly classified two types of net wraps both used to wrap bales of harvested crops. The case was brought by RKW Klerks to contest CBP's classification of the wraps as synthetic "warp knit fabrics" classified under Harmonized Tariff Schedule subheading 6005.39.00. RKW Clerks had said they are instead "parts" of "harvesting or threshing machinery" under subheading 8433.90.50.
