Answers

MOQ Guide — frequently asked questions

How do I choose the right organic pigment?

Start from the end use. Match shade direction, tinting strength, opacity and the fastness profile — heat, light, weather, solvent and migration resistance — to your substrate and processing conditions rather than to the colour name alone.

What is the difference between organic and inorganic pigments?

Organic pigments give brighter, cleaner, higher-strength shades and are standard for vivid blues, greens, reds and yellows. Inorganic pigments offer higher opacity and heat resistance but duller shades. Many industrial systems blend both.

How do I read pigment fastness data?

Light fastness uses the 1–8 Blue Wool scale and heat, weather and chemical resistance use 1–5 grey scales, where higher is better. Prioritise high light and weather fastness for outdoor and automotive use.

How do I write an enquiry that gets a fast quote?

Include the pigment code, application and resin system, current shade reference, packing, destination, monthly or annual volume, preferred Incoterms and any compliance documents your import team needs.

Which documents do you provide for MOQ Guide?

Technical Data Sheets, Safety Data Sheets (SDS/MSDS) and batch-specific Certificates of Analysis are issued on request, together with REACH and RoHS declarations and the correct HS code for customs clearance.

What are your minimum order quantity and lead time?

MOQ and lead time depend on the pigment grade, packing format and destination port. Standard export packing is 25 kg bags in cartons or on shrink-wrapped pallets. Share your product code, monthly volume and target market and the export desk will confirm MOQ, price and the shipment schedule.
