Import Tips & Compliance
• Document the metallocene catalyst content, as this does not affect classification but may be relevant for end-use compliance
• Confirm the specific gravity is below 0.94 on the certificate of analysis
• If the resin is for food packaging, verify it meets Health Canada's food contact material requirements
