Import Tips
• Include production process documentation proving 'drawn glass' status, as float glass mimics appearance but changes heading
• Label shipments clearly with thickness, area, and 'not otherwise worked' to prevent customs reclassification during inspection
• Watch for absorbent layer coatings; if present beyond microscopic thinness, it may still qualify but requires chemical analysis proof
