Common buyer questions

Before you request a quote.

Does polycarbonate automatically qualify for food contact?

No. Suitability must be established for the exact grade, destination and conditions of use. Include the required declaration in your enquiry rather than relying on a general description of polycarbonate.

How do I request PC 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.
