Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify density certification (0.5-0.8 g/cm³) with lab tests to confirm classification

• Include mill test reports showing wood fiber content and resin binders under 3% if applicable

• Avoid misclassification as particleboard (4410) by documenting fiber vs chip composition
