Industry and chemicals: specify the application and grade

Mineral fillers, polymers, raw materials for paint, PVC or detergents, and packaging are selected according to the process and requirements of the finished product. A chemical name or material family does not define a grade. Provide the exact designation, required specifications and packaging to prepare an enquiry distinct from one for finished building products or paints.

Information to include

• State the application, grade designation or reference and required properties. For a mineral filler, include the required particle size where specified in your technical requirements.
• Specify quantity per order, packaging format and receiving constraints. For packaging, state the material, dimensions, capacity and required accessories.
• Attach your specification sheet and request the relevant technical or safety data sheets. Batch characteristics and the documents to be supplied should be defined in the offer.
