Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 85%+ acrylic staple fibers, as blends under 85% shift to 5515

• Provide weave specs (square construction, ends/picks >33/cm²) in documentation to justify sheeting classification

• Avoid misclassification as printcloth by ensuring weight exceeds 170 g/m² and no print patterns
