Import Tips
• Provide thermal analysis reports showing calcination temperature 700-1000°C to distinguish from dead-burned (1400°C+)
• Label shipments clearly as 'caustic calcined magnesite for industrial use' to prevent reclassification
• Check for EU origin preferences; many suppliers qualify for GSP duty reductions
