Import Tips
• Submit NRC (Noise Reduction Coefficient) test reports to substantiate sound-absorbing claims during customs review
• Avoid metal reinforcements that could trigger classification as Chapter 73 iron/steel articles
• Label with fire ratings (e.g
• Class A) to prevent scrutiny under building code exclusions
