Four kinds of buyers, four different problems to solve
A distributor is buying shelf coverage, a contractor is buying inspection-day certainty, a brand owner is buying a mark on the device, and a project buyer is buying one delivery. The catalogue is the same — the program behind it is not.
What each one is actually shopping for
Read the one that sounds like you — the pages linked from each card carry the detail.
Distributors
UL listed GFCI, USB outlets, receptacles, switches and plates for warehouse stock, with mixed-SKU containers and private-label programs when the volume supports one.
Contractors & builders
TR and WR devices for residential, hospitality, commercial and retrofit work — specified by location, so the inspection package matches the installation.
Importers & brand owners
OEM and ODM programs: face markings, matched finishes, custom packaging and UPC integration, with the listing structure explained before the artwork is approved.
Project buyers
Cross-category supply for hospitality, multifamily, student housing, offices and retail fit-outs, from one factory and one container instead of five purchase orders.
The program that fits the buying problem
Every route below ends in the same RFQ form — what changes is what we prepare before quoting.
| If you are | Start here | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| A distributor building stock | Wholesale & OEM | Mixed containers, default case packs, packaging and barcode specifications, private-label options |
| A contractor or builder | Solutions by setting | A device schedule for the setting — GFCI locations, USB output, TR / WR status and plate openings already decided |
| An importer or brand owner | Wholesale & OEM · Private Label | Face markings, seven matched finishes, individual boxes and cartons, and the Multiple Listing path in writing |
| A project buyer | Solutions and the model comparison tool | One list across five families, submittal sheets per model, and one container per phase |
Samples from existing moulds ship in about 5 working days, and the sample cost is normally credited against the first production order.
The parts that do not change with the program
Whatever the buyer type, these four are the same — and they are the reason most first orders turn into a second one.
- A quote back within one business day of a complete inquiry
- Samples from existing moulds before a production commitment
- The document set — UL certificate and test report, invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, submittal sheets
- One container across all five families, so you are not running five lead times
How we handle customer names
We do not publish customer names, logos or project references without written permission, so this page will not show you a logo wall.
What we can do instead: tell you which programs are running in a category, walk you through the same documentation and packaging structure those orders use, and let you speak to an existing customer where they have agreed to it.
If you are evaluating us against another supplier, the useful comparison is not the customer list — it is the listing record, the document set and the packaging file, all of which you can see before committing.
What changes between buyer types, commercially
Discount structure by buyer type, territory protection and annual agreements are commercial conversations rather than catalogue lines.
- Trial quantities are available on standard SKUs; OEM programs with custom tooling start at a different minimum.
- Territory arrangements and annual pricing are agreed per customer rather than published.
The rest of the company section
Send the list, get the package back
Model list, quantities and project type is all we need to start. The quotation comes back in one business day with the specification sheet for each line item, the listing reference it holds and the packing detail for the DC — one document, not four.
