Industries

Industries we source for

Each category fails in its own way. These are the ones we work in most and what tends to go wrong in each.

Contact

Construction & building materials

Fixtures, tiles, sanitaryware, hardware and finishing materials.

What to watch

  • Freight cost often exceeds unit cost — container optimisation matters more than unit price

  • Destination building-standard compliance

Industrial equipment & machinery

Production machinery, spare parts and assembly-line equipment.

What to watch

  • Voltage, frequency, and plug standards for the destination market
  • Spare-parts availability and after-sales support terms
  • Installation, commissioning, and operator training

Consumer goods & retail

Household products and general merchandise.

What to watch

  • Tighter AQL limits — defects reach end customers directly

  • Seasonal lead-time planning around Chinese New Year

Commodities & raw materials

Copper, cobalt and select agricultural goods.

What to watch

  • Quality specification and assay method agreed in writing

Flexible packaging, labelling and print-finishing equipment for branded goods.

What to watch

  • Ink and substrate compliance for food or pharma packaging

  • Minimum order quantities on custom print tooling
