Import Tips
• Ensure packaging complies with UN hazardous material regulations (Class 5.1 oxidizer) and include proper MSDS/SDS documentation
• Verify purity certificates to confirm classification as chemically defined sodium peroxide per Chapter 28 Note 1
• Avoid misclassification as stabilized organic peroxides; common pitfall is bulk vs. retail packaging
