Import Tips
• Verify exact yarn count, singles yarn usage, and square construction via lab testing to confirm printcloth definition and avoid reclassification
• Provide mill certificates showing <85% synthetic staple fiber and mainly cotton mix; declare weight accurately to stay under 170 g/m² threshold
