Customer Question:
We have 10 cartons (2 cubic feet) each of Thai hand made paper having seeds and flower petals impregnated therein. It is called Mulberry paper. Please could you indicate what the cost would be to have the paper treated (Gamma irradiation) on arrival.
Burke Bros Answer:
Having spoken with our local Quarantine specialist team, they said they hadn’t heard of this product but they said it would depend how the seeds were impregnated in the paper. If it was part of a process whereby they were fixed therein by heat then they might not need treatment of any kind here. However they would need to see the product or maybe some digitals of it to really determine this. If treatment was required it would probably just be heat treatment and they thought that might be around $30.00 per box, however a discount might be negotiated for this quantity.
