Trial & Sample Orders
100% Payment Upfront
Trial and sample orders are handled differently from standard industrial orders. Because these orders are generally smaller, availability-sensitive and prepared specifically for evaluation or development use, full payment is required before dispatch.

All trial and sample orders must be paid in full before shipment. Trial order quantities are determined based on material availability, requested specification, packaging and the commercial feasibility of the order.
Submitting a trial request does not reserve stock until Gallium Global confirms the material and commercial terms in writing.
