OEM & ODM Services

From your first sketch to a sealed blind box case

Design, sculpting, tooling, painting, packaging, compliance testing and export logistics — handled by one team in Suzhou Industrial Park, with a single project manager on your account.

Choosing a Model

OEM or ODM — where your project starts

Most clients begin with ODM for their first blind box line and move to OEM once the IP is established. Both routes run through the same facility, project manager and QC process.

Project Timeline

A repeatable path, roughly 10 – 14 weeks

01

Brief & Quote

Share reference images, target price, quantity and launch date. You receive a costed proposal within 24 hours.

02

Concept & 3D Sculpt

Illustrators and sculptors turn the brief into turnarounds and a printable 3D model, revised until approved.

03

Prototype & Sampling

A physical prototype is printed, hand-painted and photographed. Paint masks and joints are tuned in this round.

04

Tooling & Molding

Production molds are cut and validated. First-article samples confirm fit, color and finish before mass production.

05

Production & QC

Injection, airbrushing, assembly and packing run with in-line checks, then AQL 2.5 final inspection.

06

Packing & Export

Blind box sealing, carton labeling, container loading photos and full export documentation handled in-house.

Quality Control

Checks written into every batch

Blind boxes hide the product from the buyer, so consistency matters more than in open retail. We keep a signed color master and a reference sample for every SKU, and compare production against them at each inspection point.

Material Testing

Third-party lab testing for EN71-1/2/3, ASTM F963 and CPSIA. Reports issued before every bulk shipment.

Paint & Color Control

Spectrophotometer checks against your Pantone chips, plus a signed color master retained for each SKU.

Drop & Torque Testing

Small-parts, torque and drop tests on each tooling family to keep children's product compliance stable.

Traceable Batching

Every carton carries a batch code linked to resin lot, paint date, line and inspector for full traceability.
