About this HS Code
HS Code 4819 encompasses cartons, boxes, cases, bags, and other packaging containers of paper or paperboard. The classification includes subcategories for corrugated boxes (4819.10), folding cartons (4819.20), sacks/bags (4819.30-4819.40), and other packaging items (4819.50-4819.60). This fundamental packaging category supports virtually all consumer and industrial goods sectors with paper-based packaging solutions. Products range from basic shipping containers to sophisticated retail packaging with high-quality printing and structural design elements. Technical specifications focus on burst strength, edge crush resistance, and other performance metrics related to product protection and distribution requirements. Unlike plastic packaging (HS 3923), these fiber-based materials offer advantages in printability, recyclability, and consumer perception of sustainability. This division represents significant converting operations transforming paperboard into functional three-dimensional packaging structures.
