Import Tips
• Verify outer ply species through certification; nonconiferous like poplar must be documented to avoid reclassification to coniferous codes
• Ensure formaldehyde emission compliance with EPA TSCA Title VI for composite wood products sold in the US
• Provide mill test reports showing glue type and layer construction to confirm it's not particleboard
