Import Tips

• Provide spectrographic analysis to prove low aluminum and vanadium for high-purity claims during customs valuation

• Use ventilated containers to manage potential hydrogen evolution from fresh lumps

• Avoid pitfall of undervaluation; base declared value on current LME titanium prices
