Liquid manufacturing lead times
24-hour quote. One-quarter timelines.
HBM returns a formal preliminary liquid estimate within 24 hours, then moves through bench samples in 2–4 weeks, a pilot batch in 2–4 weeks, and commercial production in 4–8 weeks — most liquid projects ship within a single quarter.
Lead times by stage
A formal preliminary estimate comes back within 24 hours. Bench samples take 2–4 weeks, a pilot batch another 2–4 weeks, and commercial production 4–8 weeks depending on fill format and volume.
Why HBM is fast on liquids
Mixing, filling, and R&D share one Tampa Bay facility, so there is no hand-off between sites. Proven water-based, oil-based, and emulsion systems and a 24-hour quote turnaround keep projects on a single-quarter timeline.
