How an order moves from our factory to your port: what fits in a container, which trade terms we quote, which documents travel with the goods, and how minimum quantity and production time work.
The figures below are planning numbers for a 20GP. They are not a packing guarantee: roll length, pallet configuration and packing method all move the number, so the quantity on your quotation is the one that applies.
| Container | Product | Approximate quantity |
|---|---|---|
| 20GP | Homogeneous or commercial sheet, 2 mm | 6,000–7,000 m² |
| 20GP | Flexible skirting, 10 cm | 45,000 m |
If a project mixes flooring and accessories, the two normally ship together and the loading is calculated on the combined volume rather than on each item separately.
| Term | What it covers |
|---|---|
| FOB Shanghai / Tianjin / Dalian | Our standard basis. We deliver to the named port and load; freight and insurance are arranged by the buyer. |
| CIF / CFR | We arrange the sea freight to your port; under CIF insurance is included, under CFR it is not. |
| DDP / DAP | Door delivery, available for selected destinations — mainly Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia and others) and selected Middle East markets. Confirmed per project, because it also depends on who acts as importer of record. |
Which term makes sense depends mostly on whether you already work with a forwarder. A buyer with an established forwarder usually prefers FOB; a first order into a new market often goes more smoothly on CIF or DDP.
HS classification depends on the destination country and is declared on the commercial invoice and packing list of each shipment. Tell us the destination and we confirm the classification we apply before you book freight, rather than leaving it to the forwarder to guess.
| Order type | Minimum |
|---|---|
| Stock specification | 300–500 m |
| Custom colour | 1,000–2,000 m |
| New tooling item | 3,000 m, or one mixed container |
For custom colours a tooling charge applies per set; it is refunded once the order reaches one 20GP or 10,000 m.
Sampling or tooling takes 7–10 days. Mass production takes 7–10 days, counted from receipt of the deposit and approval of the sample. Both windows start after those two conditions are met, not from the enquiry date.
With these six items we can quote goods and freight together, instead of sending the freight question back to you:
For 2 mm homogeneous or commercial sheet, a 20GP takes approximately 6,000–7,000 m². For 10 cm flexible skirting, a 20GP takes approximately 45,000 m. The exact quantity depends on roll length, pallet configuration and packing method, so we confirm it on the quotation.
Commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading travel with every order. A certificate of origin is issued where the destination requires one — CO, Form E, Form F or the RCEP form, depending on the trade agreement that applies. A certificate of analysis and third-party test reports are provided on request.
DDP and DAP door delivery are available for selected destinations. Because the arrangement depends on the destination and on who acts as importer of record, we confirm it per project before the order is placed rather than quoting it as a standard term.
Stock specifications start at 300–500 m; custom colours at 1,000–2,000 m; a new tooling item at 3,000 m or one mixed container. A tooling charge applies to custom colours and is refunded once the order reaches one 20GP or 10,000 m.
Sampling or tooling takes 7–10 days. Mass production takes 7–10 days, counted from receipt of the deposit and approval of the sample.
| Product line | Warranty period |
|---|---|
| Homogeneous sheet | 10–15 years |
| Heterogeneous sheet | 5–10 years |
| Accessories (skirting, profiles, welding rod) | 2–3 years |
Two claim windows apply. Surface damage or a quantity shortfall must be raised within 14 working days of container pickup. Inherent defects can be raised at any time during the warranty period. A written warranty is issued at contract signing, and the period runs from that document — not from the enquiry date.
Fire performance, fungal resistance, restricted substances and physical properties are supported by third-party reports for the product line concerned. Copies are supplied with the shipping documents on request, so the buyer can verify a claim with the issuing laboratory rather than taking our word for it.
Healthcare specifications are offered with resistance to iodine-based disinfectants and to bacterial penetration as a stated product characteristic. Because the applicable data differs by product line, ask us for the test data covering the exact line before it is written into a tender.
