Import Tips
• Test water absorption per ASTM C373 to distinguish from true porcelain (6909-6914); ceramic body >0.5% absorption stays here
• Include manufacturer specs on firing temperature and glaze type; CBP often requests for Chapter 69 verification
• Bundle with installation guides if imported in bulk to prevent reclassification as unfinished goods
