Import Tips
• Obtain ISPM 15 heat treatment certification for wooden strips to meet quarantine requirements
• Label shipments clearly as 'unassembled shaped wood strips' to prevent confusion with finished flooring
• Test for moisture content under 19% to comply with stability standards and avoid warping claims
