Specifications & ordering details
- Plans & dimensions
- Share DWG/CAD floor plans, PDF architectural sets or an Excel BOQ schedule for traditional glazed roof tiles. Room areas, elevations, layout direction, wastage allowance and finish references. Confirm the secure transfer route for files not accepted by the enquiry form.
- Product requirements
- Confirm thickness, shade batch, calibre, edge and floor/wall suitability. If the brief calls for BIa porcelain and water absorption below 0.5%, request the model-specific classification and test report; do not apply this requirement automatically to ceramic wall or roof tiles.
- Checks before delivery
- Agree shade and calibre checks, carton sampling and layout review; slab veining and face sequences need a dry-lay plan where specified. Agree photo/video inspection reports and their timing before balance payment in the order terms.
- Packing & shipping
- Confirm batch-labelled cartons, protected edges and pallet or slab-crate loading. Where plywood crates are specified, confirm the packaging construction and destination requirements before describing them as fumigation-free. Discuss 20GP/40HQ FCL or LCL consolidation from Foshan through an agreed South China departure port, such as Shenzhen/Yantian. Port, packing, shipment fit and charges are confirmed in the freight quotation.
