03 — The factory Built for the second order, not the first

Anyone can quote a sample. What matters is whether the tenth container matches the first. Incoming material through to sealed carton happens under one roof. Once a model is approved we keep the cutting die, so your second order costs less to start and looks like the first.

Pad and head materials

8 materials held in stock

The mop sells once. The pad behind it sells twelve times a year, which is where a refill programme actually earns its margin.

Six steps, all under one roof

Raw roll to sealed carton

Nothing leaves the building between the roll and the carton, which is why changing a pad size or a backing mid-order takes days rather than a new supplier hunt.

Step 01

Incoming materials

Microfiber, PVA, non-woven and cotton rolls checked by weight and lot before they reach the floor.

Step 02

Cutting

Die and ultrasonic cutting to your pad dimensions. We keep the die, so reorders carry no new setup charge.

Step 03

Stitching

Overlocked edges, hook & loop strips, pocket ends and reinforced corners.

Step 04

Assembly

Poles, frames, buckets and wringers built into finished retail sets.

Step 05

Inspection

Sampled per lot to AQL against limits you agree with us before production starts. We issue inspection reports on request.

Step 06

Packing

Your artwork, your barcode, your carton mark, palletised to your loading plan.

Q1Are you a manufacturer or a trading company?

A manufacturer. Our plant covers material processing, pad cutting, stitching, assembly and packaging, which is what lets us support bulk supply and OEM projects direct from the factory.

Q2Do you offer OEM and private label on mop pads?

Yes — material selection, size customisation, backing systems (hook & loop, pockets), logo branding and packaging design, all on bulk orders.

Q3Can your pads fit well-known brands?

Six systems today: four in production, two in sampling. Send the brand, the model or the pad itself and we confirm the fit before you order.

Q4What types of pads do you supply?

Microfiber pads, PVA sponge heads, reusable and disposable non-woven pads, cotton heads, coral fleece pads and blended fiber refills — eight materials in all, covering different cleaning jobs and replacement cycles.

Trial orders start at 300 pcs per pad size on stock materials. Standard production is 3,000 pcs per pad size and colour, or 1,000 sets for a complete mop. Printed retail packaging needs 5,000 pcs. Lead time is 35 days after confirmation.

Q6What certifications do you hold?

ISO 9001:2015 for the quality system, a full BSCI social audit, OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 Class II on pad materials, and REACH screening on anything shipped into the EU. Steam mop units carry CE and GS. SGS and Intertek reports are issued per programme. Certificate numbers go out with the first quotation.

Q7What are your payment and shipping terms?

30% T/T deposit with the balance against a copy of the bill of lading. L/C at sight on orders above US$ 50,000. We quote EXW Suzhou, FOB Shanghai as standard, FOB Ningbo on request, and CIF where you need it. Shanghai is 90 km from the plant.
