How we work
Container Orders And Export Packing
How a mixed exhaust order gets from a part number list to a container that arrives intact.
Step by step
Every Stage And The Problem It Removes
Enquiry
Long part lists take days to price when they go through a trading company.
Email the list and get it back quoted line by line, with any part that is unavailable named rather than silently substituted.
Specification
Assumptions about material, finish and package contents cause disputes later.
The quote restates material, size and what ships in each box for every line, so both sides are working from the same document.
Mixed Loading
A full container of one header is more stock than any distributor wants.
Orders can be mixed across headers, manifolds, downpipes and exhaust parts to fill a container with a range you can actually sell.
Packing
Flanges and collectors damage pipe when parts move inside a carton.
Packing method is agreed per order, bulk carton or individual retail box, before production is scheduled.
Documents
Missing or inconsistent paperwork holds a container at the port.
Commercial documents are prepared against the same part numbers and descriptions used in the quote.

Container Orders And Export Packing Questions
Can I mix categories in one order?
Yes. Mixed orders across headers, manifolds, downpipes, catback and exhaust parts are normal.
What incoterms do you work on?
Terms are agreed per order. State the terms you normally buy on in your first email and the quote will be prepared that way.
How are parts protected in transit?
Packing is agreed before production. Tell us whether the goods go straight to a shelf or into your own repacking, because it changes the right answer.
What payment terms are available?
Terms are agreed per order and stated on the proforma. We do not publish a standard term because it depends on the order and the relationship.
