Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly with 'mechanically bonded' and provide bonding process details to differentiate from non-woven types
• Test and document openness of weave for 'open woven' compliance, as dense weaves may shift to other fabric headings
• Avoid bundling with frames or hardware, which could classify as sets under different provisions
