Cord End with Powder Coating for Boots
This cord end is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the powder coating surface, the 5# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps boots consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is a compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped, or elastic that lost recovery after three washes. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
What are the payment and delivery terms?
Standard terms are a deposit with the order and the balance before shipment, under EXW / FOB / CIF / DDP as agreed.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 1000 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
Can you match a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we reverse engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk commitment.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
GRS documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
