Import Tips
• Verify water absorption via ASTM C373 test (0.5-10%) with lab certification to confirm classification
• Ensure tiles are truly unglazed; any glaze pushes to 6907.21 or 6907.23 subheadings
• Provide manufacturer specs on size (max surface in 30cm square) and firing process documentation
