Buyer takeaways
- Density should be quoted together with thickness because two sheets with the same thickness can perform very differently.
- Lower density reduces weight and price, while higher density improves rigidity, screw holding and machining stability.
- Thickness tolerance affects printing flatness, CNC fitting, cabinet assembly and panel matching.
- Ask suppliers to state test method and tolerance range before comparing prices.
RFQ checklist
- Nominal thickness and allowed tolerance
- Target density or weight per sheet
- Application and strength requirement
- Sample measurement photos or test report
- Tolerance agreement written into PI or order sheet

Density, formula, surface grade, tolerance, packing and order quantity can all change the final price.
Should buyers only compare price per sheet?
