The HS code classification of color-coated aluminum coils mainly falls under Chapter 76 (Aluminum plates, sheets, strips, and foil, in coils). Specific codes are accurately matched based on differences in material properties, specifications, processing technology, and surface treatment. Below is a detailed breakdown by category:
The base materials of color-coated aluminum coils include pure aluminum and aluminum alloy series, with distinct HS codes for each material type:
| Material Property | Common Alloys | Corresponding HS Code | Explanation |
| Pure Aluminum | 1100, 1050, 1060, etc. | 7606125100 | Applicable to coil-shaped color-coated products made of pure aluminum (e.g., 1100 series color-coated aluminum coils). |
| Aluminum Alloy | 3003, 3004, 5052, etc. | 7606122000, 7606123000 | -7606122000: Often used for 3003 series aluminum alloy color-coated coils (e.g., 0.21mm thickness × 1520mm width). - 7606123000: Suitable for some 3004 aluminum-magnesium-manganese alloy color-coated coils. |
Among all specifications, thickness is the key indicator affecting HS code classification. Different thickness ranges correspond to specific codes:
| Specifications (Core: Thickness) | Corresponding HS Code | Typical Examples |
| Ultra-thin (≤0.18mm, e.g., 0.022mm, 0.03mm) | 7607200000 | Ultra-thin color-coated aluminum coils such as 0.026mm and 0.10mm. |
| Regular (0.2–1.6mm, e.g., 0.28mm, 0.3mm, 0.45mm) | 7606125900, 7606112900 | - 7606125900: Mainstream specifications like 0.3mm, 1.0mm, and 1.2mm (most commonly declared). - 7606112900: Also applicable to some 0.3mm coils. |
| Regular (0.2–1.6mm, e.g., 0.28mm, 0.3mm, 0.45mm) | 7606920000 | Color-coated aluminum coils exceeding 1.6mm in thickness (e.g., 2.0mm polyester-coated coils), typically used in scenarios requiring high strength. |
The primary processing technology for color-coated aluminum coils is roll coating, with surface treatments mainly including PVDF (fluorocarbon) and polyester coatings. While there is no absolute boundary between codes for different process-coating combinations, the following correspondences are widely accepted in declarations:
| Processing Technology & Surface Treatment | Specific Types | Corresponding HS Code | Declaration Key Points |
| Roll coating + Polyester coating (≥18μm thickness) | Single-sided polyester coating, Double-sided polyester coating | 7606119900, 7606920000 | - 7606119900: For standard polyester-coated coils without special material/specification attributes. - 7606920000: For thicker polyester-coated coils. |
| Roll coating + PVDF (fluorocarbon) coating (≥25μm thickness) | Single-sided PVDF coating, Double-sided PVDF coating | 7606123000, 7606122000 | PVDF coatings are high-performance and commonly used in building curtain walls. These codes apply to aluminum alloy color-coated coils with PVDF coatings; declare "PVDF coating" as a key attribute. |
| Roll coating + Special pattern treatment (wood grain, orange peel texture, etc.) | Heat transfer wood grain roll coating, Embossed roll coating | 7606123000 | Applicable to coils with complex patterns (e.g., wood grain, orange peel). Specify the pattern processing method in declaration elements (e.g., "heat transfer wood grain"). |
Additional Note
For color-coated aluminum coils undergoing auxiliary processes such as chromate pretreatment or high-temperature curing, there is no need to change the core HS code. Simply supplement the auxiliary process details in the declaration elements— the core code remains determined by key attributes like material and thickness.
OUR ADVANTAGES
Smoothness
There is no residual stress on the surface and no deformation after shearing
Weather resistance
The paint pattern made by roller coating and high temperature baking has high gloss, good color stability and little color difference change
Decorative
There is a fresh natural beauty, the pattern is casual and do, give customers a wide range of personality choices, can enrich the culture of the product, give people more beautiful enjoyment.
Environmental Protection
Resistant to salt, alkali and acid rain corrosion, will not corrode or produce toxic bacteria, does not release any toxic gases.
Mechanical
ACP after composite with plastic and adhesive. With the flexural and flexural strength required by the decorative plate, in the four seasons climate, the change of wind pressure, temperature, humidity and other factors will not cause bending, deformation,expansion and so on.
