Rubbermaid Commercial Products challenging a CIT ruling in favor of CBP on the classification of fuel-cell powered dispensers for public restrooms (see 1412020056). Technical Concepts, which is now owned by Rubbermaid, imported TCell fragrance dispensers and SaniCell toilet cleaner dispensers. It argued the hygiene equipment should be classified as machinery in chapter 84 instead of electrical machinery under chapter 85, because it neither takes in nor puts out electricity. But CIT affirmed CBP’s reliquidation of the dispensers as electrical machinery because, through their fuel cells, they “depend on electricity” to operate.
