Import Tips
• Label rolls with exact g/m² weight and fiber breakdown; bedding fabrics often face audits for sheeting classification
• Certify napped finish via photos or samples, as (313) specifies napped sheeting distinctly
• Calculate average yarn number using US note formulas if challenged on fabric construction
