Keeping a short internal note on freight insurance and risk cover for each SKU pays for itself the first time a dispute arises over the Royal S.
Why freight insurance and risk cover matters on the Royal S
Cover should start at the factory gate rather than at the port of loading.

Commercial terms
Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (128 units) | Tier 1 | 7-12 days |
| Pallet (1402 units) | Tier 2 | 21-30 days |
| Container (16328 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
Frequently asked questions
Is freight insurance worth it for Royal S orders?
For container level orders it is; the premium is small relative to the exposure from loss, theft or water damage.
What happens if a batch fails inspection?
The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.
Final word
None of this is complicated, but it does need to be written down and reviewed on a schedule.
