Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This order gives importers a discount on customs duty (called a tariff concession) for specific medical sterilisation wraps.

What products are covered?

Sterilisation wraps made from polypropylene (a type of plastic fabric)
Must have multiple layers including BOTH spunbonded and meltblown layers (specific manufacturing techniques)
Fabric weight must not exceed 70 grams per square metre
Classified under customs code 5603.12.00

What does it mean? The order applies Schedule 4 Item 50 of the Customs Tariff Act 1995 to these wraps. This means importers pay reduced or zero duty when bringing these medical supplies into Australia, ultimately lowering costs for hospitals and healthcare providers who use these sterile barrier products.

How long does it last? The concession took effect on 14 November 2006 and remains in force indefinitely until revoked by the relevant authority.
