Import Tips
• Provide recycled content certification (e.g
• FSC) alongside fiber analysis to prove ≤10% mechanical
• Declare exact post-consumer percentage; high recycled may invite 4805 review if burst index qualifies
• Watch moisture content – high humidity during transit can alter grammage measurements at customs
