Import Tips
• Provide mill test reports confirming thickness exceeds 9mm and profiled for molding use to distinguish from flat panels
• Ensure compliance with TSCA Title VI for formaldehyde emissions; non-compliant MDF faces detention
• Avoid shipping in retail packaging if classified as bulk molding to prevent reclassification under 4418
