Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide certificates of composition confirming soda-lime content and absence of hazardous contaminants like lead or CRT glass
• Sort cullet by color (clear, green, amber) and ensure particle size meets recycling standards to avoid reclassification
• Declare exact origin and recycling process to comply with EPA waste import regulations; contamination leads to rejection
