Sechs Kontrollen, bevor Sie eine Nachbestellung aufgeben

Repeat orders are where complacency costs money. These six checks take very little time and cover the failure modes that actually occur.

The six checks

• •Compare the new COA against the retained reference batch, not against the specification alone. Drift inside the specification is still drift.
• •Confirm the grade and production site are unchanged. Ask directly if any raw material source changed since the last shipment.
• •Re-confirm packing and labelling. Requirements drift when your own warehouse or customer changes.
• •Check the price basis — Incoterm, named port, packing, payment terms and validity.
• •Check the production date against the shelf life, particularly for insoluble sulphur and moisture-sensitive fillers.
• •Confirm the current compliance declaration for your destination market; restriction lists are updated and an old declaration may no longer match.

Keep a shipment log

Record grade, batch number, COA values, arrival condition and any deviation. A six-shipment log makes trends obvious and is the strongest evidence you can bring to a supplier conversation.

Escalate early

If a value moves outside your historical band but still inside the specification, raise it before the next order rather than after the next problem. Suppliers respond much better to a trend question than to a claim. ## Need the documents or today's price?
