FAQs

Which markets should we start with?
We score import growth, tariffs/FTA, logistics cost, buyer density and code requirements—then shortlist 3–5 with named targets.

What MoQs do buyers expect?
Typical: tiles 1–2 containers/style, glass one truck/container per spec, coils 25–28 MT/size, pipes 5–10 MT/size, insulation 1×40’ HQ/grade—varies by branding and mix.

Can you manage testing and DoPs?
Yes—tiles (ISO 10545), glass (EN/ASTM), coatings (salt-spray), pipes (hydro/impact), insulation (λ-value/fire). We compile DoP/UKCA packs where required.

How do you reduce freight cost?
CBM-optimized cartons, nesting, mixed-SKU containers, moisture control, split shipments by region.
