What should I use category pages for?

Use them to understand buyer fit, documentation flow, and commercial handling before opening a specific lot or sending an RFQ.

Are category pages the same as live offers?

No. Category pages provide context. Live quantity, timing, and deal structure are confirmed on the current-offer pages and during RFQ review.

Yes. Buyers can move directly to contact when the material type is clear but the exact public lot is not yet a perfect match.
