U.S. imports of cellular regenerated cellulose plates, sheets, film, foil & strip (HS 392114) totaled $1.9M in May 2026, traded with 20 countries.
Importers of Cellular Regenerated Cellulose Plates, Sheets, Film, Foil & Strip paid $172K in duties in May 2026 โ an effective duty rate of 23% on $760K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: May 2026 dataRegenerated cellulose in cellular flat form โ a bio-based plastic derived from wood pulp or cotton linters โ occupies a niche in specialty packaging, filtration media, and medical device components. All imports enter under a single 10-digit line (3921140000), simplifying classification once the cellular regenerated-cellulose character is confirmed. Mexico leads US supply, with Germany and France as significant European sources reflecting established cellulose-chemistry industries in those countries.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page โ verify before relying on it.
Regenerated cellulose is a chemically processed material (e.g., viscose/rayon process) that has been reconstituted into a plastic-like form; it is not the same as natural cellulose fibers or paper. Classification under 3921140000 requires confirming both the cellular (foam) structure and the regenerated โ rather than natural or chemically modified โ cellulose chemistry. Manufacturer technical data sheets identifying the production process are the key supporting documents.
Yes โ in filtration and wound-care applications, cellular regenerated cellulose competes with polyurethane and polyether foams. Buyers sometimes switch between materials based on cost and performance, which can shift import volumes between headings 392114 and 392113. Trade professionals should monitor both headings when analyzing supply trends for these end-use markets.
