It makes **polypropylene packings for cooling towers** cheaper to import into Australia.\n\n**Who it affects:** Businesses that import cooling tower components—particularly plastic filling material used in industrial cooling systems (like those in power plants, large air-conditioning systems, and factories).\n\n**Why it matters:** Without this order, these specific polypropylene (plastic) packings would be taxed at standard rates when entering Australia. This order applies **Item 50 of Schedule 4** to the Customs Tariff Act 1995, which typically allows these goods to enter **duty-free** or at a significantly reduced rate, cutting costs for industries that rely on cooling towers.\n\n**Key details:**\n- **Goods covered:** Packings made of polypropylene specifically designed for cooling towers (tariff classification 3926.90.90)\n- **Effective from:** 28 March 2007\n- **Authority:** Made under section 269P of the Customs Act 1901"}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0704649","history":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0704649/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0704649/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0704649/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0704649/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0704649/documents"}}
