Import Tips
• Verify composition meets lead-free standards with lab certificates to comply with FDA and EPA regulations for food-contact ceramics
• Include firing temperature specs in documentation to prove ceramic industry use and avoid reclassification as general pigments
• Check for heavy metal content declarations to prevent customs holds on environmental grounds
