Import Tips
• Verify mechanical bonding process documentation to distinguish from chemically bonded or woven fabrics
• Provide lab analysis confirming colored glass fiber composition and roving structure to avoid reclassification
• Ensure invoices specify 'closed fabric of rovings' to prevent misfiling under yarn or open mat categories
