Description

HSN 38130020 covers fire extinguisher charges containing hydrobromofluorocarbons (HBFCs), another ozone-depleting fire suppression chemical class restricted under the Montreal Protocol.

Export Considerations

HBFCs are subject to an even earlier and more complete Montreal Protocol phase-out than HCFCs - essentially no new production is legally permitted, verify any transaction involves only recycled material.
