Import Tips
• Provide airflow and particle retention test data to support filtration end-use without shifting to machinery parts
• Ensure no metal coatings, as 'absorbent/reflecting layers' in notes could classify under different glass sheets
• Label clearly as nonwoven to distinguish from knitted felts in other textile-like headings
