Import Tips
• Provide architectural specifications showing dedicated ceiling use and edge interlocking features to prevent reclassification as flooring
• Test and certify resin content (<3% binder if applicable) and formaldehyde emission levels (CARB Phase 2 compliance) for U.S. market entry
• Use ISPM-15 certified packaging for shipping to avoid phytosanitary issues with ligneous materials
