Frequently Asked Questions
1: What essential export certifications do the plastic packaging bags produced by your company possess?
We hold a comprehensive suite of export compliance certifications, including BRC, GRS, FDA, SGS, ISO9001, ISO14001, OK Compost, and the Claim Standard Recycled Blended certification.
These credentials enable us to meet the customs clearance and quality inspection requirements of major global markets, such as Europe, the Americas, Southeast Asia, Japan, and South Korea.
We can provide scanned copies of original certificates—including English versions—to assist clients with customs verification procedures.
2.Do your products comply with the environmental and food-contact standards of the intended export destinations?
Absolutely. Our food-grade packaging bags have passed FDA food-contact testing, while our eco-friendly options comply with the EU’s “OK Compost” compostability standards and the GRS (Global Recycled Standard).
Even our standard industrial packaging meets the environmental limit requirements for plastic packaging in various countries. We can provide specific, targeted test reports tailored to the regulations of each client’s export destination.
3: Can you provide the necessary documentation—such as Certificates of Origin and quality inspection reports—required for customs declaration?
Yes. We provide all official customs declaration documents free of charge. This comprehensive export documentation package includes commercial invoices, packing lists, Certificates of Origin (both GSP and General Certificates), third-party quality inspection reports, material certifications, and more. We work closely with our clients throughout the entire process to ensure a smooth and successful customs clearance.
4: Is the GRS certification for your recycled-material packaging bags authentic and valid? Is it traceable?
Our GRS certification is authentic and verifiable; it can be validated directly via the official GRS website. The percentage of recycled content and the entire production process are fully traceable.
For every batch of recycled packaging bags, we can provide a unique GRS traceability code along with the corresponding certificate, thereby helping our clients meet their brand’s environmental marketing and regulatory compliance requirements.
5: What customization options are available for your plastic packaging bags? What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?
We offer comprehensive customization across all dimensions, including size, thickness, material type, printing (full-color, single-color, or hot stamping), sealing method (self-sealing, heat-cut, or zipper closure), perforation, and more. The MOQ for standard models varies depending on the specific specifications, while the MOQ for large-format industrial packaging bags can be flexibly negotiated.
6: What types of plastic packaging materials can you produce? For which specific applications or scenarios are they best suited?
Answer: Common materials include PE (Polyethylene—a general-purpose option with excellent toughness), OPP (Oriented Polypropylene—highly transparent), CPP (Cast Polypropylene—heat-resistant), PET (Polyester—high-strength), recycled PE/GRS-certified recycled materials, and biodegradable bio-based materials. These materials are suitable for a wide range of applications, including food packaging, electronics packaging, daily necessities packaging, and industrial bundling.
7: What are the tolerance ranges for the packaging bag's thickness and dimensions?
Thickness tolerances are controlled within ±0.01mm, and dimensional tolerances are controlled within ±1–2mm, in full compliance with export industry standards. Samples will be provided for confirmation prior to mass production to ensure that the final products match the approved samples.
8: Will the printed patterns fade or become blurry? How many colors can be printed?
We utilize eco-friendly gravure and flexographic printing processes. Our inks feature strong adhesion, excellent abrasion resistance, fade-proof durability, and are odorless. We support precise printing in 1 to 12 colors, capable of reproducing high-definition logos and patterns. Design proofs are provided for confirmation prior to printing; mass production begins only after the samples have been approved to your satisfaction.
9.Can you produce specialized packaging bags with features such as food-grade safety, anti-static properties, biodegradability, or moisture-proof vacuum sealing?
Yes. We specialize in producing packaging bags with various special functions, including food-contact safety, anti-static (ESD) properties, full biodegradability, moisture-proof vacuum sealing, light-blocking properties, and resistance to extreme temperatures (low or high). We can customize specific functional parameters based on the unique characteristics of your product.
10: How long does sampling take? How are sampling fees calculated?
Sampling for standard styles takes 3–5 days, while specialized custom styles take 7–10 days. We provide “blank samples” (without printing) free of charge. For samples requiring color printing, a nominal plate-making fee applies; however, this sampling/plate-making fee can be refunded once a bulk production order is placed.
11: Once an order is confirmed, what is the lead time for mass production?
The production lead time for standard orders is 10–20 days, while large-volume or complex custom orders take 20–35 days. The exact timeframe depends on the order quantity and the complexity of the manufacturing process; specific delivery dates will be clearly stipulated in the contract. For urgent orders, we can activate an expedited production line to prioritize your order.
12: Can you provide progress updates and quality inspection videos during the production process?
Yes, we can. During the production phase, we provide regular updates on production progress. For critical quality inspection stages—such as material testing, print verification, and dimensional spot checks—we can provide real-time videos and photos. This ensures a fully transparent and controllable process, guaranteeing product quality.
13: What are your spot inspection standards for mass production? How are defective products handled?
We strictly adhere to the ISO 9001 quality management system throughout the entire inspection process. We utilize AQL (Acceptable Quality Limit) sampling standards to ensure that zero defective products enter the market. Should any quality issues arise, we will unconditionally arrange for rework, replacement, or a refund, and we will bear the associated losses.
14: What costs are included in the quotation? Are taxes and shipping costs included?
Our standard quotation provides an ex-factory unit price, excluding taxes; however, we can provide a tax-inclusive quotation upon request. Shipping costs are calculated separately based on the export port, mode of transport (sea, air, or express courier), and cargo volume. We can provide quotations based on various trade terms, such as FOB, CIF, and EXW.
15: Do you offer volume discounts? Can prices be reduced for long-term partnerships?
The larger the order quantity, the more favorable the unit price. Long-term strategic partners enjoy exclusive privileges, such as priority scheduling, complimentary sampling, and special discounts. Furthermore, we can adjust our pricing schemes annually based on the volume of our ongoing cooperation.
16: What are the payment terms for export orders?
Our standard payment terms require a 30% deposit upfront, with the remaining 70% balance paid after mass production is completed and the client has approved the final inspection. For long-term partners, we can negotiate flexible payment methods—such as Letters of Credit (L/C) or Open Account (OA) terms—to ensure the financial security of both parties.
17: How is the product packaging handled? Is it suitable for long-distance sea or air freight?
We utilize specialized export-grade cartons lined with moisture-proof film. These cartons are reinforced for added durability and clearly marked with shipping marks, product details, and moisture-handling warnings. This packaging is specifically designed to withstand the rigors of long-distance sea, air, and land transportation, preventing damage or moisture exposure during transit.
18: Can you assist with logistics arrangements, customs declarations, and cargo booking?
Yes, we can. We maintain long-standing partnerships with a professional logistics team specializing in international trade. We can provide our clients with comprehensive, one-stop export services—including cargo booking, customs declarations, trucking, and customs clearance—to ensure a hassle-free experience and help reduce logistics costs.
19: What should I do if I discover quality issues after receiving the shipment?
If a client reports a quality issue within 7 days of receiving the goods and provides supporting photographic or video evidence, we will provide a resolution within 24 hours of verification. We will unconditionally arrange for replacements, rework, refunds, or compensation, and will follow up on the matter closely until the issue is fully resolved.
20: Can you guarantee a stable, long-term supply? Is there a risk of stockouts or price increases?
Our company operates standardized production facilities and maintains a stable raw material supply chain, enabling us to guarantee a consistent and reliable long-term supply. In the event of fluctuations in raw material prices, we will communicate with our clients in advance and strive to keep our quoted prices stable, thereby avoiding any unjustified price increases.
