HS Code 4415.10 – Wood; cases, boxes, crates, drums, similar packings and cable-drums
HS code 4415.10 is the 6-digit subheading for wood, cases, boxes, crates, drums, similar packings and cable-drums. It is used for wooden shipping crates, plywood packing cases, solid wood boxes, cable drums and pallet boxes.
What HS 4415.10 covers
This HS code covers a wide range of wooden packaging solutions, including cases, boxes, crates, drums, and similar packing containers, as well as cable-drums. These products are essential components of global logistics and supply chains, used for the safe transport and storage of goods across various industries, from manufacturing and agriculture to electronics and heavy machinery. Wooden packaging is valued for its strength, durability, stackability, and often its reusability or recyclability. International trade in these items is driven by the constant movement of goods worldwide, with demand from virtually every sector that requires robust shipping solutions. Importers are typically countries with significant manufacturing output or those serving as major transit hubs. Exporters are often nations with readily available timber resources and established woodworking industries capable of producing standardized or custom packaging. Key trade considerations include adherence to international phytosanitary standards (ISPM 15) to prevent pest spread, structural integrity for heavy loads, and increasingly, sustainability and legality of timber sources (like EUDR/EUTR).

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
