Import Tips
• > Confirm that the modacrylic fibres meet the definition of synthetic staple fibres and that the wool is fine animal hair

• large cones) is acceptable
• Have documentation ready showing the fibre blend percentages and the flame-retardant properties, as the CBSA may verify the product's end use
