WHY IT GOES WRONG
Rare-earth supply, without the paperwork risk
Sourcing teams face volatile pricing, inconsistent material quality and very little visibility of where material actually came from. Terra Tec works directly with producers and carries the documentation end to end, so what arrives matches what was quoted.
- Producers checked and documented before we introduce them
- Certificate of Analysis and written specification on every shipment
- Terms agreed in writing before anything is committed
SUPPLIER QUALIFICATION
No supplier advances without all four
Enthusiasm is not evidence. Every producer we consider has to clear the same four gates before a buyer ever hears their name.
GATE 02
Licence position evidenced
A named export licence held, or written confirmation that none is required for that specific material.
GATE 03
Export history proven
Evidence of a prior export to Europe — a bill of lading, a port, or a customer reference we can check.
GATE 04
Independent assay
A Certificate of Analysis from a recognised third-party laboratory, not the producer’s own paperwork.
If a supplier dodges any of the four, they are finished
We log the reason and move on. No exceptions, no matter how good the price looks. That discipline is the service — the material is available from many places, the certainty is not.
FAQ
Your questions, answered
The things procurement teams ask first. If what you need isn’t here, ask us directly and you’ll get a straight answer.
What documentation comes with a shipment?+
A Certificate of Analysis confirming purity grade and composition, a Safety Data Sheet, country-of-origin documentation, and the export compliance paperwork the destination requires. Third-party laboratory reports and customs declarations can be arranged on request.
Are the materials you supply export controlled?+
Some are. Since April 2025 China requires an export licence for samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium and yttrium, and for their oxides, alloys, compounds and magnet materials. We work primarily in materials outside that list. Where an enquiry is for controlled material, we establish the producer’s licence position before quoting — never after.
What shipping terms do you offer?+
FOB or CIF to your nominated port. Freight coordination and the documentation package are arranged as part of the contract rather than left to you.
What are your payment terms?+
Terms are set per transaction and agreed in writing before anything is committed. Telegraphic transfer is standard in this trade. We will not ask you to pay against a producer whose licence and registration we have not evidenced.
Do you hold stock?+
No. Terra Tec is a sourcing intermediary. We do not mine, refine or warehouse material, and we say so plainly rather than implying otherwise. What we hold is the relationship with the producer and the paperwork that makes a shipment legal.
