Import Tips

• Provide elongation and breaking strength data (<15% elongation typical) to distinguish from standard polyester under CBP review

• Declare exact chemical composition (PET polyester) to prevent misclassification as nylon or aramid yarns

• Avoid retail labeling; ship in industrial cones (>5kg) to maintain bulk yarn status
