Organising international sourcing operations for the consumable, auxiliary and intermediate materials that keep production running.
Industrial materials are the invisible but indispensable side of production. A consumable with a modest unit value can stop an entire line the moment it runs out. What matters in this area is not the size of any single order but the continuity of supply: the right material, available at the right time, at consistent quality.
A product-independent approach to global trade: Yurt Bereket Global is not the producer or seller of any particular industrial material. Whatever the product, we bring the right manufacturer, the right international buyer, a suitable financial model, a secure payment structure and logistics into one coordinated trade operation. Products may change, markets may change, opportunities may change; our business is international trade.

How trade in this area usually works
The process runs on the technical data sheet. Without defined performance values — viscosity, hardness, temperature resistance, chemical composition, grammage and the like — finding an equivalent product is not possible. Buyers frequently look for an alternative to a material already in use, and in that case the technical data sheet and safety data sheet form the basis of comparison.
On quality, batch certificates of analysis, safety data sheets and, where relevant, declarations of conformity are requested. Items with chemical content may fall under specific transport and storage regulation, which varies by product and destination country and follows the applicable legislation.
Requirements are usually multi-item and repeating. Rather than many small orders, consolidating items from different manufacturers into a full container load gives a clear advantage on both freight and customs. Less-than-container shipments and road transport are used for urgent needs. For items with a shelf life, production date and stock turnover form part of the planning.
On payment, regular repeat supply typically runs under framework agreements with shipment-based payment, while letters of credit are preferred in new relationships and for high-value transactions. The choice always rests with the parties and their banks.
What we coordinate in this area
- Building an equivalent-product definition from the technical data sheet
- Turning multi-item material lists into a single supply structure
- Identifying verifiable manufacturers across the relevant product groups
- Running sampling, certificate of analysis and safety data sheet processes
- Consolidating items from different suppliers
- Structuring full or less-than-container shipment plans
- Following transport requirements for items classed as dangerous goods
- Setting up a recurring supply programme and stock turnover plan
- Embedding the payment structure into the operation in step with the banks
