THE TRADE PAPER OF THE FACTORY FLOOR

The desk

Request a quote

Describe what you need once. No supplier sees it without your consent, and none except those matched to the categories you picked.

  • Private

    Your request is never published, never listed and never sold. The people who run the desk here can read it, and every read they make is logged.

  • Free, and never pay-to-play

    No supplier pays to receive your request, and nobody can buy their way to the front of your list.

  • No files, and nothing confidential

    The request is a summary. Drawings and specifications change hands after an introduction, under your own agreements.

When a supplier is interested in your request, you hear from us.

What are you looking for?
If you are buying a finished product, which of these?
The project
Which categories?

Pick up to three. Your request goes to a small number of suppliers in total, so selecting more categories does not reach more of them.

Include nothing confidential. Specifications and drawings change hands after an introduction, under your own agreements. This form does not accept files, on purpose: the safest way to not lose a document is to not hold it.

Any hard requirements?

Every supplier your request goes to sees these, so only tick what is genuinely required.

You

We send one message here to confirm the request. Nothing goes to any supplier before you open it.

A city and a country is enough.

Regulatory context (optional)

Useful to a supplier reading your request. “I don’t know” is a real answer and is welcome.

If you would rather look first

The FDA data on this site answers a real part of the sourcing question on its own: who is registered, what they have cleared, what has been recalled, and which product codes they list against.
