Import Tips
• Ensure the mats are mechanically bonded (needled or stitched) and not chemically bonded, as chemical bonding may change classification
• Declare the weight per square meter and glass fiber type (e.g
• E-glass) to facilitate CBSA verification
• Keep supplier documentation proving the mechanical bonding process
