Import Tips
• Conduct square construction checks (warp/filling picks) to validate sheeting per statistical note; discrepancies lead to audits
• Label with exact fiber percentages and weight per m²; U.S
• Customs requires this for duty assessment
• Avoid bulk packaging confusion—specify retail vs industrial to prevent set classification issues
