Import Tips

• Verify weight per square meter via lab testing to confirm ≤185 g/m² for this subheading; exceeding it shifts to other 7019 categories

• Provide mill certificates showing mechanical bonding (not chemical) and coloring process to avoid misclassification as woven fabrics in 7019.40

• Ensure documentation distinguishes from glass wool per Chapter Note definitions to prevent reclassification to 6806 for non-compliant mineral wools
