What a grade looks like

Colour, clarity and lump size set the price on every resin line. These are the grades we sort to, shot against the same neutral card that travels with a sample.

How a lot gets specified

Four steps between an enquiry and a loaded container. Nothing ships against a verbal description.

01

Enquiry

Product, grade, quantity, destination port and incoterm. Those five fields are enough to price.

02

Sample and analysis

A sample from the offered lot, with a certificate of analysis where the buyer's process needs one.

03

Contract specification

Guaranteed parameters are written into the contract and separated from typical lot averages, so there is no argument on arrival.

04

Documents at loading

Invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and phytosanitary or fumigation certificates where the goods require them.

Where the containers go

Eight destination markets, each with its own import paperwork. Indian resin buyers, Chinese customs and EU declarations do not ask for the same file.
