Import Tips

• Ensure the beads are in primary form and that the styrene content exceeds 95% by weight

• The blowing agent (pentane) is considered an additive, which does not affect classification

• Declare the product under 3903.90.00.00 and be prepared to provide technical specifications to the CBSA
