This manufacturing agreement is for use by any business, for any product. Use for engineered product, clothes, furniture or anything else. The key point is that you are not instructing the manufacturer to finalise design work or add value but simply to make the product. It is an umbrella version suitable for either a single instruction, or for multiple or continuing orders.
