This document is usable both as a sales catalogue and to exchange in advance the product data between the Supplier and the Customer, in order to synchronize their product data-bases. It lists the articles composing the Fabric Producer's offer (codes, descriptions, prices and sales conditions) and can include some of the technical data (composition, weight and width, construction specifications, …).
This document is used to provide the Customer (Buyer) with the technical data relevant to describe and characterize the fabric article; i.e.: general data, costruction details, measurements of color fastness, dimensional stability and mechanical properties.
This document is used to notify to the Fabric Producer the articles of his Offer that are considered for future acquisition or use in the Apparel Season Collection. The same document can also be used by the Client to request the Fabric Technical Sheet and/or notify the buyer’s article code to the Producer.
