Epoxy floor coating distributor briefs by floor duty
Distributor language is useful when a US warehouse, food plant or parking structure needs restock. It does not replace resin system, solids, packaging and destination on the RFQ, and it does not mean this desk is a stocking distributor.
- Duty of the slab
- Build: self-level, mortar, flake or waterborne
- Package for restock
- Documents the receiving site will file
Duties that change distributor purchase fields
Trade-offs stay visible: 100 percent solids builds raise film thickness but change viscosity and VOC profile; waterborne systems may ease odor yet need different cure windows. This page does not pick a winner.
| Duty | Ask on the RFQ | Leave open until quoted |
|---|---|---|
| Dry warehouse traffic | Abrasion note, primer in or out, drum net fill | Moisture vapor emission of the slab |
| Wash-down or food aisle | Chemical splash notes, color, SDS for the exact solids | Whether a food-contact claim applies |
| Parking or ramp | Traffic-bearing versus decorative flake, coverage at WFT | Site temperature during install |
| Distributor restock | IBC versus drum, pallet pattern, sample kit mass | Recurring forecast volume |
Limits that stay with the buyer
Substrate moisture, ambient temperature and mixing ratios are operating decisions. This sourcing page does not provide application instructions. Flash point, UN number and packing group wait for the SDS of the quoted concentration. TSCA status for US supply is requested from the named plant and is not a credential of Epoxy Floor Coating Sourcing.
Document questions when the buyer is an epoxy floor coating distributor
- Can one SDS cover a private-label restock line?
- Only if the concentration, resin system and package match the quoted SKU. A family SDS that lists several viscosities stays an open item.
- Do we need a CoA on every drum?
- Ask the plant which CoA fields travel with the lot. Distributors often file solids, color and viscosity; absence of a field stays visible on the comparison sheet.
- What about REACH if the goods stay in the United States?
- US TSCA inventory status is the first regulatory question for domestic delivery. REACH is requested when the buyer names an export destination. Neither status is assumed from a competitor brochure.
