Import Tips
• Include end-use statements if for hobby/retail to distinguish from industrial panels during customs review
• Pack panels flat with protective wrapping to prevent dimension distortion from moisture during ocean transit
• Test for formaldehyde emissions if destined for toy/model use; US regulations may require additional TSCA certification
