Import Tips
• Verify species certification as Acer spp. maple with phytosanitary certificates to confirm nonconiferous classification
• Ensure edges are continuously shaped (tongued/grooved) but planks remain unassembled to avoid reclassification to assembled flooring
• Label moisture content and kiln-drying status to comply with building code imports and prevent pest issues
