Product and selection

Which grade fits my can?

Send the can volume, valve type and target fill weight. Two of the four grades will be obviously wrong within a minute, and we will tell you which one we would run.

Summer and winter — what actually changes?

Catalyst and blowing balance, not the polyol backbone. Winter grades react slower and need more catalyst; the foam is the same foam at the same density.

Can I blend two grades?

No. Blending removes the traceability that makes the datasheet meaningful. If a job sits between two grades, pick one and adjust fill weight — not the drum.

Do you supply the isocyanate too?

No. We supply the polyol side and the process. Isocyanate is widely available locally or regionally; we will tell you the specification to ask for.

Order and logistics

What is the MOQ and how is it packed?

1 tonne: five 200 L steel drums, palletised, roughly 1.1 m³ of footprint. Samples are 2 × 50 kg.

What Incoterm do you work on?

EXW Hangzhou as standard; FOB Ningbo or Shanghai on request. CIF to your port is quoted case by case.

How long is the lead time, really?

7–15 days to major Southeast Asian ports once the vessel is booked. Drum production adds 5–7 days if the grade is not in stock.

How do I pay?

T/T 30% deposit, 70% against the bill of lading, for a first order. Terms are discussed after the second.

Documents and compliance

Which documents come with a shipment?

SDS, COA per batch, Form E, packing list, and a non-dangerous goods transport appraisal on request.

Is Component A dangerous goods?

It is not classified as dangerous goods for sea freight: flash point above 100 °C, not pressurised. The transport appraisal is the document your forwarder will ask for.

Do I need certification to import it?

Classification follows your local HS rules, and the finished product is certified under your market's scheme. We supply the technical file; the application is a local act.

Can you write the SDS in my language?

The SDS is issued in English. A translated version can be prepared for a local registration file, marked as an unofficial translation.

The cooperation model

Do you sell finished cans?

No. ColdOFF® is a technology brand. We do not sell finished cans, and we do not sell retail products under any label. The brand on the shelf is yours.

Will you compete with me?

No. We sell material to fillers and technology to plants. If we ever enter a market with a finished product, it will be after a written change to this terms — not before.

Can I have exclusivity?

Territory protection is discussed case by case, after we see the volume and the market plan. It is a written annex, not a verbal promise.

What if the foam fails on my line?

Send the retained sample and the batch number. If it is our batch, we replace it and investigate; if it is a process cause, the troubleshooting table usually finds it in ten minutes.
