• Retain production records showing impregnation process uses resorcinol formaldehyde latex specifically for adhesion
• Avoid shipping in bulk rolls over 50kg without proper packaging to prevent filament damage claims at entry
• Consult CBP rulings for exact RFL treatment verification if using alternative adhesion promoters
