Wholesale terms
Agreed per order, in writingMinimum quantities
Set per reference and per colour
Not per order — so quantities that are small on their own can often be combined across references and zones to reach container volume.
Higher for branded orders
Printing and packaging setup is charged per run, so a branded line carries a higher minimum than the same line plain.
Quoted, never guessed
Send the buying list and we will come back with the real minimum for each line — before you commit, not after.
Pricing and terms
FOB or CIF
Quoted against your quantities and port of discharge.
T/T and L/C at sight
Both are workable; payment terms are agreed before the order is placed.
No list prices
PPE pricing moves with material and freight, so a published number would be out of date before it was useful.
What an own-brand programme does not change
Branding does not change what a product is. If a reference does not meet a standard you require, putting your name on it does not make it meet that standard — and we will not present it that way. Where a test report exists for the exact reference supplied, it is passed on with the order; where it does not exist, the product is offered without the claim.
What buying through a sourcing partner changes
Three things one factory cannot doSeveral zones, one order
A glove factory will not supply your helmets, and a boot factory will not supply your spectacles. Buying zone by zone means several suppliers, several minimums, several shipments and several sets of documents. Buying through one sourcing partner means one order, one loading and one document set.
Minimums reached by mixing
Minimum quantities are set per reference and per colour, not per order. Quantities that are too small on their own can often be reached by combining references and zones in the same order. Where that is not possible, we say so instead of taking the order.
A reference that is not listed
Where you describe an exposure rather than a product — a contaminant, an anchorage situation, a marking your market requires — the reference is sourced against that description rather than matched to whatever happens to be in the catalogue.
How an order runs
What is agreed in writing, and when
Brief and reference selection
You specify the exposure, the standard you must meet and the volumes. We come back with the references that fit, the minimum quantity for each line, and the branding options each one allows.
Written specification
Material, dimensions, colour and packing are fixed in writing before production. This is the document the order is produced against, and the one you check the delivery against.
Sample and written approval
A sample is produced for new references and for every OEM order, and nothing goes to mass production until it is approved in writing — including the packaging and the carton marking.
Production
Production runs against the approved specification and is followed through the manufacturer's schedule, so that a problem is raised while it can still be corrected.
Packing and loading
Packing, carton marking and box counts are confirmed with the loading data for your order — cartons, volume and weights — before the goods leave.
Shipment and documents
Shipped FOB or CIF, with the document set prepared against the requirements of your market.
What can carry your brand
Not every reference allows every optionProduct marking
Logo printed or embossed on the product where the material allows it — helmet shells, spectacle temples, glove cuffs, boot tongues.
Retail packaging
Polybags, header cards, hang tags and printed cartons in your brand colours and language.
Shipping cartons
Carton print, your shipping marks and barcoding applied at the factory that produces the order.
Instructions & inserts
User instructions and care leaflets in the languages your market requires.
Where a reference cannot be branded — because of the material, the mould, or because the manufacturer's own markings must stay intact for traceability — we will say so before you commit, not after.
