GLASS PROCUREMENT · RFQ
Glass RFQ Checklist
An incomplete RFQ produces quotations that cannot be compared. In glass procurement, technical and logistics details should be defined in the same request.
Product definition
State glass type, tint, coating, laminate build-up or decorative finish. A generic request for a “glass price” is commercially weak.
Thickness and dimensions
Specify nominal thickness and jumbo/standard sheet or cut sizes. For project glass, a panel schedule and drawings improve accuracy.
Processing requirements
Tempering, lamination, holes, edgework, printing or special tolerances should be stated upfront.
Quantity and order model
Separate one-off project volume from recurring monthly demand. Make the unit basis clear: m², metric tons, crates or containers.
Delivery and commercial terms
State destination country/city/port, target date and preferred Incoterm such as EXW, FOB or CIF.
