Import Tips & Compliance

• Specify panel dimensions and locking mechanism in commercial invoice to distinguish from welded grating

• Include load class certification (e.g

• AS1657) for structural compliance verification

• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'mesh' which could shift to Chapter 73 wire products
