Import Tips
• Ensure the product is a dry mix or prepared composition, not a separate chemically defined compound, to stay under 3816.00.00
• Provide a material safety data sheet (MSDS) to the CBSA if the bauxite content raises dust concerns
• Verify the end-use is refractory, not construction-grade concrete, to avoid reclassification
