Import Tips & Compliance

Include chemical composition reports for UV resistance; pitfall is classifying as general rubber under 4016 without textile proof

Specify ink compatibility (UV, conventional) on invoices; ensure weights confirm >50% textile if heavy construction

Ship in vacuum-sealed rolls to maintain surface integrity; reference exact press models (e.g

Heidelberg)
