Dear Ms. Tampu: In your letter dated October 9, 2014, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of your client, Liv Building Products Inc. The merchandise under consideration is a glass panel referred to as the “Invisirail.” A sample was submitted with your ruling request and was forwarded to the Customs and Border Protection Laboratory for analysis.

From the information you provided, the Invisrail is made of float glass which does not have an absorbent or reflecting layer, and is available in a range of sizes.
