What HS 7615.20 covers
This category covers aluminium sanitary ware and parts thereof, primarily used in bathrooms and washrooms. This includes items such as sinks, shower trays, and various fixtures, where aluminium's corrosion resistance, lightweight properties, and modern aesthetic appeal are highly valued. These products are particularly popular in contemporary and industrial-style designs. Importers typically include construction companies, bathroom fixture retailers, and suppliers to the hospitality sector, driven by new construction and renovation projects. Exporters are specialized manufacturers of sanitary fittings and architectural components. Key trade considerations involve design trends, surface finishes (e.g., anodized, brushed), ease of installation, and compliance with plumbing and building codes, as the market is influenced by both functional requirements and evolving design preferences.

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).
