Last updated: April 2026 dataCellulose wadding and nonwoven webs of cellulose fibers that have been coated, impregnated, or surface-decorated share this NES heading with similarly treated paper and paperboard not captured elsewhere — a deliberately broad residual category. Products such as impregnated tissue, saturated crepe, and specialty cellulose webs used in filtration, hygiene, and industrial wipe applications are typical trade goods here. The inclusion of cellulose wadding distinguishes this heading from the purely flat-sheet paper headings and reflects the structural diversity of advanced cellulose-based materials in modern manufacturing.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Cellulose wadding is a low-density, highly absorbent, creped or uncreped cellulose sheet distinguished from paper by its bulk, softness, and absorbency rather than by a specific grammage or fiber-content threshold. Classification as wadding versus paper is based on the product's physical characteristics and intended function, and borderline products may warrant a CBP binding ruling.
Yes — impregnated or coated industrial cellulose webs that do not qualify as finished wipes or articles fall under this NES heading when in roll or sheet form. Finished, pre-moistened wipe articles are generally classified under a different heading as prepared articles, so the degree of further processing is the key distinction.
