Common buyer questions

Before you request a quote.

What should a HIPS converter include in an RFQ?

Specify your process, grade reference, impact target and appearance requirements. Include the order volume and destination so both material fit and shipment planning can be reviewed.

How do I request HIPS supply from PANTEX?

Send the current grade or required datasheet, intended application, order quantity, packaging and destination. The offer will identify the proposed material, commercial terms and available documentation before you decide.

Are technical values and certifications guaranteed for the whole family?

No. Performance, approvals and availability relate to the exact offered grade. Request the current technical datasheet and any required declarations; qualification samples and supporting documents are subject to source confirmation.
