Import Tips
• Ensure the ethylene is not mixed with other gases that would make it a mixture outside Chapter 29
• For imports in pressurized cylinders, comply with Canadian Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) regulations and provide proper labeling
• The presence of impurities is acceptable as long as they are incidental and do not make the product suitable for a specific use
