Sanitary ware procurement for the UK
LIFA coordinated sanitary-ware supply for a UK housing program, reducing transit damage to 0.4% and meeting the 340-unit handover schedule.
- The buyer
- A Birmingham, UK homebuilder completing 340 residential units.
- The product scope
- Sanitary ware; toilets, basins, and taps; 340 bathroom sets plus spares. Program value $2.2M.
What needed to change?
Prior imports arrived with 5% transit damage and missing CE documentation, delaying handovers and triggering penalties.
How LIFA managed the work
We qualified 3 sanitary-ware suppliers with CE compliance.
We specified export packaging (corner guards, foam, wooden crates).
We managed consolidated container shipments with loading inspection.
We structured delivery to the 340-unit handover schedule.
Transit damage 0.4%; full CE documentation; all handovers on schedule; the next phase was placed at $2.9M.
