RFQ planner
Plan the epoxy floor coating manufacturer questions before you inquire
Use this page to freeze specification, document and approval items. It reuses a split layout, not a sustainability story. Trees, carbon claims and net-zero language do not belong here.
Planner checklist for one manufacturer quote
-
Identity
Write chemical name, CAS where known, and whether the buyer wants a self-level, mortar, flake or waterborne build. Similar catalog names can hide different stabilizer packages.
-
Measurable fields
Resin system, solids content, viscosity, color, cure schedule and coverage stay on separate lines. Record a requested value or mark the line as open for the epoxy floor coating manufacturer.
-
Quantity and package
Use kilograms, liters, gallons or drums. Say whether the amount is a sample, trial lot, forecast or firm order. IBC and drum are different logistics events.
-
Documents
SDS, TDS and CoA format for the quoted SKU. Add TSCA, REACH, ISO quality-system or transport questions only when the destination needs them. They are verification asks, not this desk's certificates.
-
Budget preference
Optional currency and per-unit or whole-order basis. High-end, mid-range, economy or undecided describes buyer posture, not a scored mill.
Selection trade-offs to keep visible
One hundred percent solids systems can raise film build and lower reported VOC, yet they often arrive at higher viscosity and a narrower pot life. Solvent-borne systems may flow more easily and then add flash-point and ventilation questions from the SDS. Waterborne epoxy can reduce odor on occupied sites and still fail if the TDS moisture window is ignored. The planner records which path the buyer wants; it does not declare a universal winner.
Decorative flake kits and heavy-duty mortars should not share a unit price. Coverage numbers are comparable only at the wet-film thickness written on the TDS. If a plant offers an alternative grade, place it on a new line and obtain buyer approval before ranking cost.
Open items that block a clean manufacturer comparison
- Solids content without a method or temperature
- SDS that lists several concentrations
- Cure schedule that omits walk-on versus chemical-resistance time
- Freight that is silent on whether destination charges are included
- Sample mass with no acceptance test owner
Read the procurement brief if you need a longer table, then return here to freeze the inquiry.
Submit the planner as an inquiry
Paste the locked fields, remaining open cells and the US receiving city. We will ask an epoxy floor coating manufacturer to answer those lines only.
