From the first email to regular deliveries

Four steps, the same for manufacturers and distributors. We only switch raw materials after an industrial trial, so the path takes months. After it, the supplier gets planned volumes.

Price and offer

The form below or an email to k@arhat.pro: price on DAP Tashkent or FCA with the shipping point, TDS, SDS, COA of the last lot.

Laboratory sample

We test dispersion, viscosity, colour on X-Rite, print a proof on the RK Proofer and check adhesion. The test report goes back to the supplier.

It works both ways

We do not publish supplier names, trade names or per-item volumes — on the site or in materials for AI agents. Your prices, documents and samples are seen only by procurement and the laboratory.

On the site
  • material groups and classes
  • class-level requirements
  • order of volume per group
  • basis, logistics, documents
After first contact
  • specification with tolerances
  • annual volume per item, as a range
  • packaging and delivery schedule
Under NDA
  • reference trade names
  • monthly forecast
  • target prices
