Import Tips

• Verify density certification (0.5-0.8 g/cm³) through lab testing to confirm HTS 4411.93 classification and avoid misclassification as lower-density panels

• Include detailed profile drawings and end-use statements in documentation to distinguish as 'standard wood molding' vs. plain boards

• Check for formaldehyde emission compliance (EPA TSCA Title VI) as required for composite wood products entering the US market
