Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'primary form PET resin' to avoid confusion with finished strapping (3926.90)
• Comply with REACH-like chemical regs by providing safety data sheets for polymer handling
• Test for diethylene glycol content, as high levels may affect viscosity classification
