Import Tips
• Provide detailed grading reports distinguishing Eastern vs Western hemlock to avoid reclassification
• Declare exact dimensions accurately; thicknesses under 6mm shift to plywood/veneer chapters
• Check for kiln-drying claims; untreated rough must not exceed natural moisture levels without note
