Tiles / Sanitary Ware
Box and area based tile trade with shade lots, breakage allowance and project supply.
Also covers: Tiles · Sanitary Ware · Bathroom Fittings · Ceramics
About this industry
Tiles are sold by area but stocked in boxes, and shade varies between production lots in ways customers notice on a finished floor. Breakage in handling and transit is normal and must be allowed for. Project supply to builders runs on credit with staged delivery over months.
Common operational problems
- Box-to-area conversion must be exact or quantities are wrong on site
- Shade lots differ visibly, so partial supply from mixed lots causes complaints
- Breakage in handling and transit needs an allowance
- Project supply to builders spans months with staged deliveries and credit
- Discontinued designs leave unmatched stock
Example workflows
Box and area dual tracking with exact conversion
Shade lot recorded and reserved for a project
Breakage recording against stock
Project supply schedules with staged delivery
