Import Tips

Provide OEM specifications confirming EPDM/rubber processing to prevent misclassification as plastic machinery

Include downstream cooling/vulcanization line details if integrated, as they affect complete machine valuation

Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain rubber processing equipment from specific origins
