Import Tips

Submit photos/specs showing ESD-safe design and wafer size compatibility (e.g

300mm) for classification support

Pair with buyer letters confirming use in cleanroom semiconductor environments

Watch for reclassification if trays resemble general packaging—emphasize semiconductor handling function
