Import Tips
• Obtain CE marking or equivalent safety certifications for European-sourced presses to meet OSHA import standards
• Document substrate compatibility (e.g
• PE, PP films) to support flexographic classification versus other printing types
• Check for anti-dumping duties if sourced from certain Asian manufacturers previously investigated for printing machinery
