Import Tips
• Confirm that the granules are not mixed with other materials, as Chapter 25 Note 1 excludes mixed products
• Provide information on the calcination process and particle size to support classification under 2508.30.00
• Ensure the granules are not expanded, as expanded clays fall under heading 68.06
