Import Tips
• Obtain EPA allocation certificates prior to import due to strict HCFC production and consumption quotas
• Ensure packaging complies with UN hazardous materials regulations for liquefied flammable gases
• Maintain batch purity records above 99.5% to avoid reclassification as chemical mixtures
