Import Tips
• Provide technical specs proving stitch-bonding (chain stitches from textile yarn) to distinguish from woven interlinings
• Ensure dyeing is even and documented, as colorfastness tests may be required for apparel end-use
• Declare width and weight precisely, as statistical suffixes like (223) track specific dimensions
