Import Tips
• Provide particle size distribution and purity certificates to confirm classification as unwrought powder, not fabricated articles
• Comply with REACH or TSCA chemical registration for fine metal powders due to inhalation health risks
• Package in inert atmosphere containers to prevent oxidation during transit
