Classification is determined by General Rules 1, 2(a), 3(b) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7020 00 and 7020 00 80.
The article is a composite good, presented unassembled, made up of different components. As the profiles are only on one side of each panel, the product is not considered to be set in a frame (see also the Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature to Chapter 70, General, second paragraph). The profiles, fixing devices, screws, plugs, seals etc. are components of a subordinate character. It is therefore the glass that gives the product its essential character.
Classification under heading 7326 as other articles of steel or under heading 7610 as frames made of aluminium is therefore excluded.
Classification under heading 7013 as glassware of a kind used for toilet or similar purposes is also excluded, as only small movable articles are covered (see also the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes to heading 7013, first paragraph, (2)).
Classification under heading 7007 as a safety glass is also excluded as this heading covers safety glass but not articles made thereof.
The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 7020 00 80 as other articles of glass.
