Why are US CPG brands transitioning to wholesale hemp paper and packaging in 2026?
US consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands are shifting to industrial hemp paper to comply with strict state-level environmental mandates like California SB 54 (Plastic Pollution Prevention and Packaging Producer Responsibility Act), Washington State EPR laws, and corporate Scope 3 decarbonization commitments. Hemp paperboard provides a 100% tree-free, PFAS-free, and circularly recyclable alternative that eliminates single-use plastics from retail supply chains.
What US customs tariffs, HS codes, and FDA compliances apply to imported hemp paper?
Hemp paper and packaging products import into the United States under Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) Code 4802.55 with standard duty treatment. Because all OG Hemp products are manufactured exclusively from non-cannabinoid agricultural bast fibers (zero THC/CBD), shipments clear US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and FDA 21 CFR food-contact safety standards without regulatory hurdles.
