Import Tips
• Label rolls with exact construction (e.g
• 60s yarn, 120x60 thread count) to support poplin classification over plain weave
• Comply with FTC fiber content rules; test for non-cotton blends that could shift to 5212.15+
• Use ISF filing 24+ hours pre-loading; include weave diagrams if challenged
