Import Tips & Compliance

Provide fiber origin certification (basalt as rock-derived) to confirm mineral wool status

Test for hazardous material declarations, as high-density wools may have import restrictions

Sold with clamps? Classify assembly as set if clamps dominate value, potentially Chapter 73
