FOR MANUFACTURERS & EXPORTERS
Design for tariffs before they design themselves into your P&L.
The classification starts at the bill of materials, not at the port. GingerControl helps product and supply chain teams see tariff exposure at design time, so the engineering choice and the landed cost decision happen in the same room.
The starting point
By the time a product hits the port, the important decisions have already been made. Material choice, country of origin, and product architecture all decide which HTS code it falls under and which duty rate applies. GingerControl helps manufacturers make those decisions with tariff data in hand, screen what they export for control, and recover the duties they already paid on inputs that leave again as finished goods.
What you get
Built around how your team actually works.
BOM-level classification
Feed a bill of materials and see how each component maps to its HTS code and duty.
Design-time tariff checks
A small spec change can move a product into a different classification and a different duty. Spot those before engineering freezes the design.
Origin planning across facilities
For manufacturers with facilities in multiple countries, Product Sandbox shows which origin produces the best landed cost for each market.
BOM-TO-HTS
Classification starts upstream, not at the port.
Run each component through the HTS Classification Researcher and map it to its HTS code, its duty rate, and the applicable special programs. A different fabric blend, fastener, or packaging can shift a product into a more favorable heading, and Ginger helps you find those levers at the design stage, not after a shipment has already been re-classified at the port.
THE EXPORT SIDE
Screen what you ship, recover what you paid.
The Export Control Classifier screens your product against all 21 USML and 10 CCL categories for ITAR and ECCN controls, with a mandatory research report for your compliance team or counsel. It runs as a web workflow, no API yet. And Duty Drawback recovers up to 99% of the duties you paid on imported inputs that leave the country again as finished exports, often the single largest recovery for this profile.
