Ordering Methods

Forward Orders

What is it?

  • When placing an order you can arrange delivery on a future date (or several different dates) to suit your schedule
  • Whatever you order, we'll allocate the stock immediately at the current price
  • You can choose from 1 – 10 separate delivery dates over the next 12 months
  • You can have a large quantity order delivered in smaller quantities at different times.

How does it help me?

  • Increased efficiency: because it reduces admin (as you need just one purchase order) and helps you keep to planned production schedules
  • Accurate budgeting: we fix the price on the day you place your order, so you're protected against price rises
  • Saves money: because it reduces costly downtime, cuts down your stock holding and lets you benefit from discounts for large orders.
Please Note: The forward order option is not available when ordering extended range products.
