Definitions: Glulam: Builders' carpentry also includes glue-laminated timber (glulam), which is a structural timber product obtained by gluing together a number of wood laminations having their grain essentially parallel. Laminations of curved members are arranged so that the plane of each lamination is at 90 degrees to the plane of the applied load; thus, laminations of a straight gluman beam are laid flat. [from HS 4418, Builders' joinery and carpentry of wood, including cellular wood panels, assembled flooring panels, shingles and shakes] X-lam: Panels consisting of laths of roughly sawn wood, assembled with glue in order to facilitate transport or later working. [from HS4421, Other articles of wood]

HS: The Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding Systems, a multipurpose international product nomenclature developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO), comprises up to six digits and is updated every 4 - 6 years.

CN: The Combined Nomenclature of the EU is identical to the HS on the first six digits and comprises two extra digits, making it more detailed than the HS. It is updated and published every year. How to interpret the notation: The dots are used for readability and have no meaning. A code ending in " 0"  means that all subcodes are to be included, e.g. 47.03.10 includes subcodes 47.03.11 and 47.03.19. If only 4 digits are indicated, all subcodes are included, e.g. 

47.06 includes 47.06.10, 47.06.20, 47.06.30, and 47.06.90. Code numbers separated by " /"  mean that all the following codes ending in the digits indicated (and their subcodes) are to be included. The term " ex"  means that only part of the data available under a code is usable because the code encompasses a wider product range. For instance, " ex44.07.99"  under " Sawnwood - of which tropical"  means that only part of the data under HS-code 44.07.99 is usable, because insufficient detail is available. However, the table shows that CN code 440799.96 is sufficiently detailed to identify " Sawnwood - of which tropical" . In case even the CN is not detailed enough, bold print is used in the CN column. Many tropical timber products contain " ex"  codes in the above list, since the HS explicitly recognises less than 100 tropical timber species. Species not explicitly recognised as tropical are grouped in " other"  categories with non-tropical, non-coniferous timbers that are likewise not explicitly recognised by the HS (e.g. 44.07.99). Estimates of tropical timber trade totals therefore require that these " other"  categories be analysed to ascertain how much of the total was sourced from tropical countries. This can only be done at country level; Eurostat produces

HS: The Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding Systems, a multipurpose international product nomenclature developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO), comprises up to six digits and is updated every 4 - 6 years.

CN: The Combined Nomenclature of the EU is identical to the HS on the first six digits and comprises two extra digits, making it more detailed than the HS. It is updated and published every How to interpret the notation: The dots are used for readability and have no meaning. A code ending in "0" means that all subcodes are to be included, e.g. 49.00 includes all codes from 
49.01 to 49.11. If only 4 digits are indicated, all subcodes are included, e.g. 48.18 includes 48.18.10, 48.18.20, 48.18.30, 48.18.40, 48.18.50 and 48.18.90. Code numbers separated by "/" mean that all the follow ing codes ending in the digits indicated (and their subcodes) are to be included. The term "ex" means that only part of the data available under a code is usable because the code encompasses a wider product range. For instance, "ex94.06" under "Prefabricated buildings - of w hich made of w ood" means that only part of the data under HS-code 94.06 is usable, since mobile homes and prefabricated buildings of wood, iron or steel are all lumped together under that code. How ever, the table show s that the CN classification covers sufficient detail to identify "Prefabricated buildings of wood". In case even the CN is not detailed enough, bold print is used in the CN column. Many tropical timber products contain "ex" codes in the above list, since the HS explicitly recognises less than 100 tropical timber species. Species not explicitly recognised as tropical are grouped in "other" categories with non-tropical, non-coniferous timbers that are likewise not explicitly recognised by the HS. Estimates of tropical timber trade totals therefore require that these "other" categories be analysed to ascertain how much of the total was sourced from tropical countries. This can only be done at country level; Eurostat produces foreign trade data for all countries.
