Import Tips

• Verify water absorption via ASTM C373 test (0.5-10% required); provide lab certificates to CBP

• Confirm tiles are fired above 800°C post-shaping and unglazed to avoid misclassification

• Include technical specs on thickness (<3.2 cm) and intended use as paving to distinguish from roofing tiles
