Order list

The order list will display an overview of all warehouse, back-to-back, and direct orders you made over the past 24 months, through Brenntag Connect or direct from Brenntag.

The order status can be any one of the following:

  • Open
  • Closed
  • Cancelled
This status is based on the status(es) of the related order lines, which can be any one of the following:

  • Submitted (the order line has been successfully submitted in Brenntag Connect)
  • Acknowledged (the order line has been successfully acknowledged in Brenntag Connect and is currently under review by Brenntag)
  • Confirmed (the order line has been processed and will be delivered. You have also received an order confirmation)
  • Scheduled for delivery (delivery has been organized and will take place on the scheduled date
  • Invoiced (delivery has been completed and an invoice has been sent)
  • Cancelled (the order line has been cancelled)

All orders will have an "Open" status until all order lines are invoiced or cancelled.

Once all order lines have been invoiced or cancelled, an order will have a "Closed" status.

"All Orders" displays an unfiltered list of orders placed by anyone from your company.

"My Orders" shows only the orders placed by you, the logged-in customer.

"Last Updated" tells you when changes, such as status and delivery date updates, were last made.

The total order value is displayed on your order list once the order line status shifts to "Submitted".

Your order list only displays an overview of all warehouse, back-to-back and direct orders you made over the past 24 months. If your order fits this description but is not showing up on your order list, please contact us via Chat.

Brenntag Connect allows you to copy a previous order from the last 24 months and use it to create a fresh order. This is especially useful if you frequently order the same product.

*Please note that pricing will be updated in Brenntag Connect to reflect current prices.

Reorder - reorder a single product within a previous order.

Reorder All - reorder all the products within a previous order, including all order lines, quantities, and the ship-to location. This means adding all this information to a new order in a single step.

Ordering

An order confirmation will be sent to you when all order lines are confirmed. If you would like us to resend the order confirmation to you, please contact us via Chat.

Yes you can.

For new orders, scroll to the bottom of your shopping cart and click the "attach" button on the right. This allows you to attach files to your order.

For existing orders, go to the "order details" page and scroll to the bottom. Click the "attach" button on the right. This allows you to attach files to your order.

The CoA is only issued after the batch/lot number has been picked. The batch/lot number may not have been picked even if the order is "Scheduled for Delivery". Therefore, the CoA may not be available. In this instance, please wait for the CoA to become available.

If you already know the batch/lot number of your order, or the batch/lot number is available but you cannot see the CoA, please contact us via Chat and we will attach a copy of the CoA to your order.

Currently, the shopping cart can only hold a single currency at a time. The first product that you add to your cart will set that currency.

To order multiple products priced in different currencies, you will have to create a separate order for each currency.

You can send in a request to edit your order, as long as the order has not been delivered or invoiced. You can access this function on the "order details" page.

Bear in mind that this is just a request and any changes to your order are subject to Brenntag's approval.

You can send in a request to cancel your order, as long as the order has not been delivered or invoiced. You can access this function on the "order details" page.

Products

"All Products" displays every product that is available through Brenntag Connect.

"My Products" displays every product that your company has purchased, or negotiated contract pricing for, in the last 24 months.

A "from" next to the price in the product list indicates that tiered prices are available. Click on "Details" to find out more about the tiers and available pricing.

The price may have changed as you have a negotiated price that depends on where the product is being delivered. If you have any questions about this, please contact us via Chat.

If the prices featured are incorrect, please contact us via Chat.

Absolutely! Just send us a request for a price offer via Chat.

Brenntag may no longer be selling this product.

If you ordered this product within the last 24 months, the order will still be displayed in your order list, even though the product will be absent from the product list.

If you have any questions about the availability of particular products, please contact us via Chat.

"Your Product Number" refers to the internal reference number that your company has assigned to particular products.

The HZ icon indicates that a product is "Hazardous".

The DG icon indicates that the product is considered "Dangerous Goods".

These icons are visible on the product details page and the bottom-right of each product listing. For more information, please refer to the dangerous goods classification in the "Details" section.

If no price is available, a "Request quote" button will be shown on the product tab. Click this button, fill in the required information, and hit "Request quote". Your request will be sent to us as an automated Chat message.

Typically, we will get back to you within 2 working days. However, this may take longer. Rest assured that we have received your request and are working on it.

For updates on your request, feel free to contact us via Chat.

Because the request is sent to us as an automated Chat message, you can't edit it directly.

If you wish to edit your request, simply submit a fresh request and this will overwrite the previous one.

Yes you can. First, go to the "Automated requests" section in your chat window, where your request for a quote will appear as an automated message. Then, send a message asking to cancel the quote request.

If you have multiple requests pending, please let us know which request you would like to cancel.

The "Requested delivery date" is the delivery date that you requested for. Delivery on this date may or may not be possible depending on the availability of resources and shifts in inventory levels.

The "Scheduled delivery date" refers to the date on which Brenntag will deliver your order. This date is subject to change. However, the scheduled delivery date will always be confirmed with you prior to delivery.
