U.S. exports of Glass — Plate, Sheet, and Related Forms (End-Use 13200) totaled $109.4M in August 2026, exported to 134 countries.
Last updated: August 2026 dataUS exports of flat glass — including float glass, tempered safety glass, and specialty coated glass — serve construction, automotive, and solar energy markets worldwide. Export classification under Schedule B mirrors the HTS structure, with processing state (unworked, toughened, laminated, or coated) and thickness being the primary determinants of the applicable code. Destination-country import requirements for safety glazing products, such as EN or local standards certification for tempered or laminated glass used in buildings and vehicles, can affect market access independently of US export controls. Specialty low-iron and solar-grade glass represent growing export segments driven by global photovoltaic manufacturing demand.

End-Use codes describe different products on the import and export sides. Cross-direction imports are not shown for this slug.
For coated glass exports, the key factors are whether the coating is metallic or non-metallic, whether it is applied on one or both surfaces, and the glass's thickness and cut dimensions. These details determine the correct Schedule B heading and should be documented in the commercial invoice and export declaration to avoid delays at the port of export or the destination customs authority.
Many markets — including the EU, Japan, and others — require tempered and laminated safety glass to meet specific national or regional standards (such as EN 12150 or equivalent) before it can be used in building or automotive applications. US exporters should confirm certification requirements with the importer of record in the destination country well before shipment, as testing and certification can add significant lead time.
