Import Tips

Verify MDF density (0.5-0.8 g/cm³) and thickness >9mm with lab certification to confirm 4411.14 classification

Include formaldehyde emission test results (e.g

CARB Phase 2) as required for U.S. composite wood products

Label products clearly with country of origin and 'Made with MDF' to avoid misclassification as solid lumber
