Beryllium waste and scrap (8112130000) arises primarily from machining, fabrication, and end-of-life recovery of aerospace and defense components, making it a niche but strategically important recycling stream. Canada is the leading US import source for this material, a pattern consistent with cross-border industrial scrap flows between integrated North American manufacturing operations. Given beryllium's toxicity in particulate form, shipments of scrap and turnings require careful packaging and hazard communication documentation.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Customs may request evidence that the material has no further use in its current form without remelting or reprocessing — such as a statement of origin, a description of the manufacturing process that generated the scrap, or a metallurgical analysis. Turnings, borings, and off-cuts from machining operations are typical examples. A licensed customs broker can help prepare the necessary entry documentation.
Yes. Beryllium scrap may be subject to EPA regulations governing hazardous waste if it meets the definition of a listed or characteristic hazardous waste under RCRA. Importers should confirm whether the material triggers any EPA notification or manifest requirements in addition to standard customs entry procedures.
