HS Code 4418.73 – Wood; assembled flooring panels, of bamboo or with at least the top layer (wear layer) of bamboo
HS code 4418.73 is the 6-digit subheading for wood, assembled flooring panels, of bamboo or with at least the top layer (wear layer) of bamboo. It is used for solid bamboo flooring, engineered bamboo flooring, strand woven bamboo flooring, bamboo parquet and bamboo floor tiles.
What HS 4418.73 covers
This HS code specifically covers assembled flooring panels made entirely of bamboo or with at least the top (wear) layer composed of bamboo. Bamboo flooring has gained significant traction in international trade as an eco-friendly, durable, and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional hardwood floors. Its rapid renewability and hardness make it a sustainable choice for both residential and commercial applications. Major importers are typically countries with a strong focus on green building and modern interior design, such as the US, Germany, and the UK. Key exporters are predominantly nations where bamboo is abundant and processed into flooring products, including China, Vietnam, and Indonesia. Traders should be aware of different bamboo processing methods (e.g., strand woven, solid, engineered), finishes, and certifications related to sustainability and indoor air quality.

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).
