Money in escrow
The factory is paid only after you accept the goods.
Verified factories
Every factory is reviewed before it can bid.
Proof, not promises
TDS, reel label and grammage proofs on every order.
Blind and neutral
No factory gets priority. Every action is logged.
Four folds from order to delivery.
Bid
Matching factories get an alert. The first to accept your target price wins — or they send a better offer.
Pay into escrow
You pay upfront through PACKbid. The money is locked; the factory sees it is safe and starts production.
Accept & release
Goods arrive, you check them, you accept. Only then is the factory paid.
Every middleman adds a margin. We cut them out.

PACKbid connects you straight to the production floor. The price you agree is the price the factory gets — plus one small, visible fee.
The math, in one line
Other factories can still offer a different price while the order is open. You choose.

Apply as a factory →Two ways to buy
Pick the mode per order. Both use the same spec sheet, the same escrow and the same quality rules.
The rules. Same for everyone.
| R-01 | Blind bidding | Buyers see country, certificates and price. Never the factory name. |
|---|---|---|
| R-02 | Two modes | Quick buy: the first verified factory to accept the target price wins. Tender: bids collect until the deadline and you choose. |
| R-03 | Escrow | Buyer pays upfront. Factory is paid after delivery is accepted, or automatically after 14 days. |
| R-04 | Neutral platform | No factory gets priority. Every action is logged. |
| R-05 | Price transparency | Closed deals feed anonymous price ranges. Single deals are never shown. |
| R-06 | Fees | Buyers: 3% per completed order. Factories: €1,000.00 / year. |
Quality
300 g or 270 g? Weigh it.
Factories upload the paper TDS with every bid, the reel label when production starts, and precision-scale grammage proofs from production. If measured grammage is outside the TDS tolerance, an issue opens and the payment stops.
