U.S. imports of non-cellular plastic plates, sheets, film, foil & strip (nesoi, combined with textile or other) (HS 392190) totaled $125.4M in April 2026, traded with 70 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataHeading 392190 is the broadest residual category for non-cellular plastic flat forms, capturing reinforced, laminated, and textile-combined constructions not covered by polymer-specific headings. The US schedule is notably granular, with 14 active 10-digit lines that differentiate by textile backing weight (above or below 1.492 kg/m²), fiber type (man-made, cotton, vegetable), plastic content threshold, and flexibility — including dedicated lines for paper-reinforced flexible sheet (3921904010) and high-pressure decorative laminates (3921905010). Canada and South Korea are the leading suppliers, with Germany, China, and Mexico also significant.

The 1.492 kg/m² threshold separates lighter textile-backed plastic sheet (lines 3921901100 through 3921901950) from heavier constructions (3921902100 through 3921902900). Within each weight band, the fiber type — man-made fiber with greater than 70% plastic content, other man-made fiber, cotton, vegetable fiber, or other — determines the specific 10-digit line. Importers should obtain areal weight (g/m²) and fiber content data from the manufacturer to navigate this matrix correctly.
High-pressure paper-reinforced decorative laminates — such as Formica-type surfacing panels — have a dedicated 10-digit line at 3921905010, distinguishing them from other non-flexible, non-cellular plastic plates at 3921905050. The key criteria are the paper reinforcement, the high-pressure manufacturing process, and the decorative surface finish. Products that do not meet all three criteria should be evaluated against the other non-flexible lines in the heading.
