Import Tips
• Tower dimensions (>1m height) may require stability/packaging certifications for ocean freight
• Fabric grille enclosures need material content declarations for flammability standards (e.g
• UL94)
• Professional vs consumer distinction critical; avoid 8518.29 if marketed for studio use
