HS Code 7324.10 – Steel; sinks and wash basins, of stainless steel

HS code 7324.10 is the 6-digit subheading for steel, sinks and wash basins, of stainless steel. It is used for stainless steel kitchen sinks (single/double bowl), utility sinks, bar sinks, commercial catering sinks and hand wash basins.

What HS 7324.10 covers

This HS code specifically covers sinks and wash basins made of stainless steel. These products are fundamental fixtures in kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, and commercial settings worldwide, valued for their exceptional durability, hygiene, corrosion resistance, and ease of cleaning. Stainless steel sinks are manufactured through processes like deep drawing and welding, often incorporating features like sound-deadening pads and various bowl configurations. The international trade is robust, driven by new construction, renovation projects, and the replacement market across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Importers include building material suppliers, kitchen and bath retailers, and plumbing distributors. Exporters are typically countries with strong steel industries and advanced manufacturing capabilities for sanitary ware. Key trade considerations include the grade of stainless steel, gauge thickness, design aesthetics, and compliance with plumbing and sanitation standards.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. 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).
