For a Christmas gift wrapping paper roll RFQ, identify the selected product and state separately the paper width, supplied length, usable printed area and quantity unit. Ask the supplier to mark the measurement points on the offered version. A catalogue size can start the discussion, but the written quotation should confirm what that size measures before the buyer approves a sample or order.
Start with one identified catalogue reference
Xinxiu Gift Pack lists a product called Christmas Gift Wrapping Paper. The referenced page gives four-color printing, 60gsm gift paper, a size of 70 × 200 cm and packing of 100 rolls per carton. These are the fields on that particular product page, rather than specifications for every Christmas design. Include the page reference and the date of the quotation request so the supplier can identify the version being discussed.
An RFQ should ask the supplier to confirm whether those listed fields apply to the item it is currently offering. If the supplier proposes another format, record it as a separate option. Do not combine the catalogue size from one item with the price or packing details from another item simply because both photographs show red Christmas wrapping rolls.
Separate paper width from supplied length
Write the two dimensions in named fields instead of repeating a pair of numbers without labels. Ask which dimension runs across the roll and which follows the direction in which the paper unrolls. An annotated drawing or a photograph of an opened sample can establish the reference. The buyer should use the same names in the quotation comparison, purchase order and sample record.
Also state the commercial unit being compared. A price per roll, per sheet or per carton describes a different quantity basis. If a supplier quotes a carton, ask it to identify the number of rolls and the offered format within that carton. Keep each supplier’s confirmed answer alongside its quotation rather than applying an assumed conversion across all offers.
Define usable area for the intended wrapping task
The full paper dimensions do not by themselves describe every part of the visible design. Ask whether there is an unprinted edge, leader, taped end or other area that the buyer should exclude when planning presentation. This is a question about the offered sample, not a claim that any such feature is present. If the entire supplied area is intended to be usable, ask the supplier to confirm that statement explicitly.
For a retail wrapping counter, choose a representative box or wrapping task and record the required presentation. State which face should show the motif and where joins may sit. The supplier can then discuss the offered format against that brief. A successful trial on one box should remain an approval for that identified example; it does not establish a universal number of gifts that every roll will wrap.
Use a format comparison table
Leave an unconfirmed field open instead of copying an answer from a similar product. A short list of unresolved format questions is easier to act on than a complete-looking sheet built on assumptions. Where two suppliers use different dimension names, translate their answers into the same buyer worksheet while retaining their original wording for clarification.
RFQ field | What the buyer records | What the supplier confirms
Product identity | Page link and selected design reference | Current offered item and any substitute
Paper width | Named cross-roll measurement | Offered width and measurement points
Supplied length | Named unrolling measurement | Offered length and stated exclusions
Usable print area | Required visible presentation | Any edges or ends outside that area
Quantity unit | Rolls requested or separately named unit | Quotation unit and contents per carton
Sample status | Reference sample identifier | Which quoted option the sample represents
Approve the sample against the quoted option
When a sample arrives, match its reference to the quotation before checking the format. Record how the paper was opened, where each dimension was taken and which design was supplied. Ask the supplier to agree the measurement method and acceptance basis for the order. This article does not prescribe a tolerance or inspection standard; those terms belong in the agreement for the actual supplied item.
If the sample and quotation differ, describe the difference in a single change note. The buyer might be considering a new length, another width or a different packing unit. Ask for an updated option identifier rather than treating an informal message as approval of every related field. Retain the earlier version so purchasing staff can see which format was eventually selected.
• Name the width direction and the unrolling direction.
• Keep format, design reference and quantity unit together.
• List unresolved dimensions as questions for the offered version.
Keep material and printing questions separate
A format agreement does not verify paper strength, coating, recyclability, certification or printing performance. If those matters affect the purchase, add clearly named evidence requests and ask what documentation the supplier can provide for the quoted item. The product page’s material and printing descriptions are useful reference text, but the buyer should not turn them into unsupported claims on its own retail packaging.
Send the final format sheet with the product link through Xinxiu Gift Pack’s contact page. Ask the supplier to return one confirmed option or a clearly separated set of alternatives. This gives the buyer a practical basis for comparing the supplied paper area without assuming current availability, minimum order quantity, price or delivery timing.
Frequently asked questions
Does the listed 70 × 200 cm size apply to every Christmas roll?
No. It is a field on the referenced Christmas Gift Wrapping Paper page. Ask which offered item it describes and have the supplier name the width and length directions for that version.
Can a buyer compare quotations only by the price per carton?
Only after confirming each carton’s contents and the format of each roll. Keep the quotation unit, roll count and dimensions visible together so different supplied quantities are not treated as equivalent.
Should a sample photograph replace the written format sheet?
Use both for different purposes. A marked photograph helps identify measurement points and presentation, while the format sheet records the supplier’s confirmed fields and the exact quotation option being approved.
