Import Tips
• Ensure the sheets are made of vulcanized cellular rubber and not plastic foam, which falls under Chapter 39
• If the sheets are cut to specific shapes for HVAC ducts, they are articles of 4016; if in bulk sheets, consider 4008
• Provide CBSA with insulation performance data and material composition
