Import Tips
• Label with exact percentages (e.g
• 60% polyester staple, 40% wool) per FTC rules to prevent reclassification
• Include mill certificates showing staple fiber processing and non-combed state for customs verification
• Watch for square construction pitfalls; if >33 ends/picks per cm, it may shift to sheeting definitions
