ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) An article in a form of an unworked board with a width of approximately 125 cm, a thickness of approximately 7,5 cm and a length of approximately 2 000 cm. It is made by gluing together veneer layers of spruce, pine or mixtures of both types of wood layers. The veneer layers are positioned in such a way that the direction of the wood fibres is the same in all layers. Some layers may also be positioned perpendicularly. The individual layers are bonded together by a phenol-formaldehyde adhesive during a pressing operation at high temperature. Edges and ends of the surface are coated with wax. The veneer layers of wood used to manufacture the article have an initial thickness of 2,8 to 3,2 mm and a density of 445 kg/m 3 (spruce veneer) and 500 kg/m 3 (pine veneer). Following the pressing process (with a pressure of 2,8 N/mm 2 ), the individual pressed layers in the final product have a thickness of approximately 2,75 mm and the density of the final product is typically between 540 kg/m 3 (spruce veneer) and 620 kg/m 3 (pine veneer). See image  ( *1 ) . 4412 99 85 Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 4412 , 4412 99 and 4412 99 85 . The article is similar laminated wood as defined by heading 4412 (see also the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 4412 , third paragraph). Classification under heading 4413 is excluded as the article does not comply with the definition of ‘densified wood’ in Note 2 to Chapter 44 because the pressing to which it is subjected increases its density by 24 % only and the article's surface remains soft, as is evident by a physical examination of the article. Classification under heading 4418 is also excluded, as the article is not identifiable as woodwork, used in the construction of buildings, in the form of assembled goods or as recognisable unassembled pieces (see also the HSEN to heading 4418 , first paragraph). It is of general use and it does not have any objective characteristics which would make it recognisable as builders' joinery and carpentry of wood. The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 4412 99 85 as other similar laminated wood. ( *1 )   The image is purely for information.
