QUALITY & EXPORT — SHEET 04 OF 06

Quality you can audit. Export you don't have to worry about.

We are ISO 9001:2015 certified and have shipped brass components to importers in the USA, UK, Europe, Australia, Canada and the Middle East for over 18 years. This page explains exactly how an order moves from your drawing to your warehouse.

COMMON BUYER QUESTIONS

Asked on nearly every first call.

Can you match a competitor's part or a Chinese supplier's price?

Send the sample or drawing and your target price — we quote honestly. On many brass parts, Jamnagar factory pricing is competitive with any origin; where it isn't, we say so.

What is your minimum order?

500 pieces standard, and we accept smaller trial orders for first-time buyers.

How fast do you quote?

Within 24 hours of receiving a drawing, photo or standard number.

What is the lead time after order?

Typically 1–2 weeks ex-factory, depending on quantity and finish.

Can we visit or audit the factory?

Yes — buyers are welcome in Jamnagar, and we do video factory tours on request.
