Import Tips
• Verify each ply thickness does not exceed 6mm and document species of outer ply as nonconiferous (e.g
• oak) to avoid reclassification
• Provide mill certificates confirming no surface covering obscures grain; common pitfall is mislabeling as veneered panels
• Ensure formaldehyde emission compliance (e.g
• CARB Phase 2) with test reports for US market entry
