Why Are Stocked Items More Expensive?
We're adapting to your needs! While we specialize in made-to-order products, we recognize the growing demand for immediate availability. Adjusting to this requires foresight in demand anticipation, material procurement, initiating stock production, and warehousing—all incurring additional costs. Consequently, our stocked items are priced to reflect these overheads. For customers who can accommodate a production lead time, we're pleased to offer discounted pricing as a thank you for your flexibility.
