  • Compare 200 kg drum versus IBC pricing, freight efficiency, and import handling cost.
  • Ask for EXW, FOB China port, CIF India port, and DAP options if available.
  • Shortlist only suppliers that provide SDS, COA, TDS, and clear transport classification.
  • Use third-party inspection or pre-shipment sampling for first commercial order.
  • Confirm whether standing stock and one-week delivery claim applies to the required quantity and packing format.
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Verify CAS 2163-42-0, chemical name, grade, assay method, and impurity limits against the supplier COA before purchase.
  • Request current COA, SDS, TDS/specification sheet, packing list template, commercial invoice template, and certificate of origin if needed.
  • Confirm whether the product is classified as dangerous goods or non-dangerous goods for sea/air transport, and request written transport classification support from the supplier or freight forwarder.
  • Check import requirements in the destination market, including India customs documentation, HS code confirmation, labeling, cosmetic raw material documentation, and any buyer-specific compliance requirements.
  • Do not rely on marketplace claims such as non-toxic, non-irritating, preservative efficacy, or suitability for a finished cosmetic claim without independent formulation and regulatory review.
  • Confirm heavy metal test methods and reporting limits for Pb, As, Hg, and Cd if the product is intended for cosmetic manufacturing.
  • Confirm whether the quoted material is industrial, cosmetic, or personal-care grade and whether it is produced under any quality management system relevant to the buyer's requirements.
