Import Tips

• Verify purity via ISO 3405 distillation test to confirm 90-95% butane content for correct classification

• Include safety data sheets (SDS) and material safety certificates; ensure DOT-compliant cylinders for transport

• Avoid misclassification as propane-rich mixes; common pitfall is purity threshold errors leading to audits
