From inquiry to delivery with fewer delays
\n
A clear timeline is the single biggest reason a neoprene project stays on track.
\n
- Day 1-3: Technical discussion, sample request, logo files.
- Day 4-7: Engineering review, feasibility feedback, pricing draft.
- Day 8-10: Prototype sample production and inspection.
- Day 11-14: Sample confirmation, PPAP or equivalent documentation.
- Day 15 onward: Bulk production, stage inspection, and shipment prep.
\n
Most delays come from missing logos, incomplete packing instruction, or unstable destination port details. Lock these items before sample approval.
