The monthly inventory volume of Silicon nitride is 10 tons, with appropriate adjustments upwards or downwards in response to peak and off-peak seasons.
HiSiaddi safeguards the supply stability of Silicon nitride through the following measures:
(1) Performance evaluation and screening of Silicon nitride brand factories based on on-time delivery rate, batch pass rate, timeliness of risk alerts, and completeness of documentation to assess their supply stability.
(2) For each mainstream model or major grade of Silicon nitride, secure 1 primary high-quality brand manufacturer and 2 backup high-quality manufacturers.
(3) Each factory operates independent production lines in separate production zones to prevent production halts caused by major unforeseen incidents such as environmental production suspensions and power outages.
Through long-term cooperation with brand manufacturers via technology commercialization and authorized distribution channels, HiSiaddi can effectively strengthen supervision over the production processes of brand manufacturers, optimize full-process traceability management, improve batch stability control, and further reinforce real-time monitoring of the supply stability of Silicon nitride products.
Long-term Annual Framework Supply Guarantee Agreement. HiSiaddi signs 12-month long-term agreements with leading manufacturers. The agreements specify the minimum guaranteed supply volume, maximum price hike range, and priority production scheduling rights during peak seasons. It is stipulated that manufacturers shall issue a 30-day prior written notice if production is suspended due to environmental rectification or equipment maintenance, and backup manufacturers will be activated to replenish goods accordingly.
We have 4 warehouses, which are jointly operated and managed with suppliers to store hot-selling products.The four warehouses are located at Qingdao Port in North China, Ningbo Port in East China, Shenzhen Port in South China, and Zhengzhou, China’s inland logistics hub. This setup guarantees sufficient supply and timely shipment of Silicon nitride during peak seasons.
HiSiaddi issues a rolling demand forecast covering the subsequent three months on the 25th of each month, allowing manufacturers to reserve production capacity in accordance with the forecast. Any new urgent orders from overseas clients will be prioritized to draw on inventories or production capacity from backup manufacturers.
Unstable logistics for Silicon nitride will extend delivery lead times. HiSiaddi has established alternative arrangements covering multiple freight forwarders, ports and transportation solutions:
(1) Binding of multiple professional chemical freight forwarders for Silicon nitride
Each product is assigned 2 to 3 freight forwarders with hazardous chemical/food transport qualifications affiliated with different shipping lines. Alternative sailing schedules can be switched to immediately in case of space shortages or customs inspections on a single shipping route.
(2) Backup transportation solutions for Silicon nitride
Ocean freight serves as the standard mode; air freight and rail freight are reserved as alternatives for urgent orders. Long-term agreements for temperature-controlled containers are signed for temperature-sensitive and perishable food additives to secure shipping space.
(3) Visual tracking and digital early warning for Silicon nitride
Freight forwarders synchronize daily updates on container loading, customs declaration, vessel loading and port arrival milestones. If customs inspection occurs, replenishment from backup inventory will be initiated immediately to shorten client waiting periods.
Full-chain digital early warning automatically monitors four categories of risks:
Factory side: Expiring supplier environmental assessment certificates, renewal of production permits, scheduled major equipment overhauls, and notifications of price hikes for upstream raw materials;
Inventory side: Inventory falling below safety thresholds, excessive inventory age, and batches failing quality inspection;
Logistics side: Shipping line space shortages, strikes at destination ports, and updates to customs policies;
Overseas side: Revisions to additive regulations and adjustments to import restriction lists in target countries.
Early warning notifications are automatically pushed to procurement and business leads, allowing backup suppliers or inventory contingency plans to be activated in advance.
As a new-type foreign trade service provider driven by dual engines of technology commercialization and export services, HiSiaddi has built a "1+2+3+4=1" service system and can supply silicon nitride raw materials from multiple well-known original manufacturers.
