Import Tips
• Document species of ALL plies (birch outer, poplar inner) with botanical verification to confirm nonconiferous status
• Ensure panels meet PS1-09 structural standards if marketed as such; provide grading certificates
• Avoid misdeclaration as ' Baltic birch' without verifying all-birch ply composition
