Import Tips
• 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)
