Import Tips
• Use official yarn number calculation (e.g
• BT/Z formula) ignoring fractions for precise 69+ determination
• Label as 'mixed mainly with man-made fibers' if cotton <85%; mislabeling risks penalties
• Avoid bulk packaging that mimics industrial rolls; retail cuts may need different stats suffixes
