Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm <85% cotton as blends vary and affect classification
• Provide weave certification proving 3- or 4-thread twill; napping must be documented in mill specs
• Avoid quota pitfalls by ensuring man-made fiber dominance in mix; declare weight accurately per m²
