Import Tips

• Verify water absorption via ASTM C373 test (≤0.5%) with lab certification to confirm classification in low-absorption category

• Measure largest surface area to ensure enclosure in ≤30 cm square; document dimensions to avoid reclassification as larger tiles

• Ensure no backing or mosaic assembly that might shift to 6907.40; provide firing process proof excluding sub-800°C heating
