Import Tips
• Require phytosanitary certificates confirming beech (Fagus spp.) origin and heat treatment per ISPM 15 to prevent pests
• Verify thickness exceeds 6 mm post-planing; measure actual dimensions to avoid reclassification as thin plywood
• Document kiln-drying process (MC <19%) to meet building code standards and prevent moisture-related customs holds
