Import Tips
• Specify glue line type (WBP phenolic for exterior) in documentation; interior urea-formaldehyde grades classify similarly but have different end-use restrictions
• Comply with APA trademark requirements if panels bear engineered wood association stamps for U.S. market acceptance
• Measure cross-sectional plies; panels with fewer than 5 plies may face challenges proving true plywood status
