Quick answers

Ordering & Production

Common questions on MOQ, sampling, artwork, packaging, payment, shipping, and compliance.

What is your MOQ?

MOQ depends on product type, material, printing method, packaging, and whether the item is custom or stocked. Balloons from 3,000 pcs; tableware from 10,000 pcs; decorations from 500 pcs. Share your target quantity and specs for confirmation.

Can you make samples before bulk production?

Yes. Samples can be arranged after artwork, material, quantity, and product specifications are reviewed. Sample lead time is 7–14 days depending on product type. Sample fees are typically refundable on bulk orders.

What artwork format should we send?

Vector artwork (AI, EPS, PDF) is preferred for logos and repeating patterns. High-resolution reference images can also be reviewed for feasibility before sampling.

Can you support private label packaging?

Yes. We support retail packs, labels, barcodes, inserts, header cards, cartons, and buyer-specific packing instructions across all product categories.

Do you manufacture licensed characters or protected IP?

Only with valid buyer-provided authorization. We do not produce protected characters or brand names without valid rights.

Can you ship to the US and Europe?

Yes. We coordinate export packing and documents with your forwarder. We support FOB, CIF, and DDP arrangements. Destination and shipping method should be shared before quotation.

Can you produce seasonal party supplies?

Yes. Halloween, Christmas, New Year, graduation, birthday, wedding, baby shower, and corporate event programs can be developed with custom artwork.

How do you handle quality control?

Orders are checked through incoming material inspection, print and color review, in-process checks, packing inspection, and final carton verification against the approved sample.

What are your payment terms?

Standard terms are 30% deposit and 70% balance before shipment via T/T. Other terms may be available for established buyers by agreement.

What is the typical lead time?

Sample lead time is 7–14 days; bulk production is typically 20–40 days depending on product type, quantity, and printing method.

Can you provide testing reports for compliance?

Yes. We arrange third-party testing (EN71, ASTM F963, REACH, FDA) on request to match your destination market. Test reports and material compliance documents are provided per requirement.

Do you offer mixed-category orders?

Yes. You can combine balloons, tableware, decorations, and gift bags in one coordinated program and even mixed-SKU cartons for retail replenishment.
