Last updated: August 2026 dataBulk and processed construction minerals — including dimension stone, industrial sand, hydraulic cement, and aggregates — serve as foundational inputs for infrastructure, residential construction, and manufacturing. Cement and clinker imports have been subject to antidumping investigations from various origins, so importers should verify whether any active orders apply to their specific supplier country and product form. Classification within this end-use category turns on processing level: raw quarried stone, crushed aggregate, and finished cement each fall under distinct HTS chapters with different duty treatments. Freight economics heavily influence sourcing decisions given the low value-to-weight ratio of most products in this group.

End-Use codes describe different products on the import and export sides. Cross-direction exports are not shown for this slug.
Hydraulic cements (including Portland, aluminous, and slag cements) harden through a chemical reaction with water and are classified separately from non-hydraulic binders. The specific HTS subheading depends on cement type and whether it is packaged for retail or shipped in bulk, so the product's technical data sheet and packaging format both affect classification.
Antidumping and countervailing duty orders have been applied to cement from certain origins at various times. Importers should check the USITC and Commerce Department's active order lists against their specific supplier country and product form before committing to a supply arrangement.
