Import Tips

• Include SEM analysis or laser diffraction reports proving micron size and 80 mesh compliance for CBP verification

• Label as 'synthetic industrial diamond powder - not gem quality' to prevent jewelry misclassification under 7115/7116

• Avoid bulk packaging without inner seals; humidity control certs needed as fines can agglomerate
