What needs to be clear before ordering

The product reference, dimensions, finish and included components must match the project. Depending on the assignment, sanitary and bathroom sourcing can include products such as sanitary fixtures, vanities, shower enclosures, taps or related fittings.

The exact project scope is defined in writing. Product categories named on this page are examples, not a promise that every product or technical system is suitable for every destination.

Specification and installation interfaces

Useful information can include:

Product type, model, dimensions and quantities.
Visible material, finish and colour.
Included hardware, accessories and spare components.
Connection dimensions or other installation interfaces supplied by the project team.
Drawings, reference images or approved samples.
Packaging and labelling requirements.
Destination and any known documentation requirements.

The buyer, designer, installer or responsible technical specialist remains responsible for confirming suitability for the intended installation and destination requirements unless a separate specialist scope is agreed.

Factory and quotation comparison

We can identify and compare Chinese manufacturers using the same enquiry. Differences in materials, included accessories, packaging, quantities, payment terms and delivery terms are clarified before a commercial decision is made.

For custom or project-specific products, drawings and finish references should form part of the controlled order documentation.

Sample and pre-shipment checks

Sample control can establish whether a proposed unit corresponds with the agreed visible characteristics before a larger order. Pre-shipment inspection can then compare finished goods with the documented project version within the agreed checklist.

Possible checks include quantities, dimensions, visible finish, included accessories, functions that can be tested safely and practically, labels and packaging. Inspection does not replace laboratory testing, certification or specialist compliance assessment where those are required.

Protecting products during transport

Glass, ceramic surfaces, finished furniture and fittings can require careful protection and identification. Packaging should therefore be reviewed in relation to product fragility, stacking, handling and the planned logistics route.

For projects using several Chinese factories, sanitary ware can be consolidated with other construction and interior products when timing, storage, packaging and transport conditions allow.

Related construction and interior sourcing

Sanitary ware sourcing can be combined with building materials, kitchens and cabinets and furniture. See the construction and interior sourcing hub for the wider project workflow.
