What Is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?

FAQ

PAPTEX MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity): 1 piece per design.

Recommended First Order Quantities:

• Forming fabrics: 2 pieces (1 running + 1 spare on shelf)
• Press felts: 2-3 pieces per press position
• Dryer fabrics: 2 pieces per dryer section

Why maintain spares?

• Unplanned fabric failure = costly emergency downtime
• Having a spare on shelf enables immediate replacement
• Emergency expedited orders cost more and still take 7-10 days

Consignment Stock Program: PAPTEX maintains buffer stock at your site — you pay only when items are shipped from consignment for use. Eliminates upfront inventory cost while ensuring availability.
