Kazakhstan Client – Industrial Chemicals Did Not Meet Specifications
2025-06-24

In the global trade environment, quality control and reliable suppliers are crucial, especially for industries that rely on high-precision or sensitive materials. Unfortunately, international buyers often face significant risks when purchasing from unfamiliar sources in China. Our latest successful case demonstrates how our legal team effectively protected a Kazakhstan client facing such challenges.

Case Background

A Kazakhstan-based manufacturing company placed an order with a Chinese supplier for a batch of high-purity chemical raw materials, intended for use in sensitive production processes. The supplier guaranteed the products met strict technical specifications and provided formal purity certificates before shipment.

However, upon the goods' arrival in Kazakhstan, the client's technical team conducted independent laboratory tests, only to discover that the materials contained significant impurities, rendering them unsuitable for the intended application. The production schedule was severely impacted, exposing the client to potential financial losses and reputational risks.

When the buyer approached the Chinese supplier to address the issue, the supplier denied responsibility, blaming improper shipping conditions during transit and refusing to offer compensation or a solution.

Our Intervention

Frustrated and facing operational delays, the client contacted our company for legal assistance. Our experienced legal team responded within hours of receiving the case, understanding the urgency of the situation.

We immediately coordinated third-party laboratory testing within China to verify the product's condition at the source. The results clearly showed that the impurities originated during the manufacturing process, not during transportation, confirming the supplier's fault.

Armed with solid technical evidence and leveraging our deep understanding of Chinese commercial law, contract enforcement, and product dispute resolution, our lawyers initiated structured, professional negotiations with the supplier.

The Outcome

Through persistent legal pressure, factual evidence, and expert negotiation, we successfully compelled the supplier to:

✔️ Provide a refund covering 60% of the order value
✔️ Offer additional compensation for the client's production losses
✔️ Avoid prolonged disputes or costly legal proceedings

The entire resolution process was completed within two weeks, minimizing operational disruptions for the client and preventing further financial damage.

Our Added Value

✅ Fast response within hours of the client's request
✅ Access to reliable third-party testing and evidence collection
