Import Tips

• Provide detailed chemical analysis certificates confirming the compound is dibromoethyldibromocyclohexane and derived from aromatic hydrocarbons to avoid misclassification

• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and REACH/TSCA registration documents, as brominated flame retardants face strict environmental import regulations

• Verify purity levels (>98%) and ensure packaging complies with UN hazardous material transport standards for flammable solids
