What is being shipped?
Empty or product-filled packaging; flat or assembled boxes; inserts supplied separately or fitted. Confirm the scope rather than assume filling or assembly is included.
HOW WE WORK / CROSS-BORDER PACKAGING PROJECTS
Know the next step.
Know what you approve.
From your first reference to an agreed packing specification, use a clear decision at each stage. The scope, fees and responsibilities belong in your project agreement.
We aim to reply personally within 24 hours. The first reply clarifies the next step; it is not an automatic quotation or sample approval.
FOUR DECISION POINTS
A shared record.
Before moving forward.
This is the proposed working process. Confirm who owns each approval and record changes against the relevant version.
- 01
Define the project
- You bring
- A product photo or drawing, approximate quantity, destination and target arrival. Unknown details can remain open.
- Review together
- Review structure, insert needs and missing information. Identify whether a quotation or a sample discussion is the useful next step.
- Before the next step
- A written brief with the product, quantity assumptions and open questions.
- 02
Agree the sample scope
- You bring
- Actual product dimensions, filled weight, artwork if available and the details you need to evaluate.
- Review together
- Agree the sample type, fees, shipping, revisions and the checks it can support. A material reference does not approve product fit.
- Before the next step
- The sample scope and costs agreed before paid work begins.
- 03
Approve a production specification
- You bring
- A named approver for structure, artwork, text and the physical colour reference. Review the identified sample version.
- Review together
- Record dimensions, materials, finish, artwork version, quantity by SKU and unresolved points. Agree inspection and issue-reporting criteria.
- Before the next step
- The relevant approvals and commercial terms recorded before a production schedule is committed.
- 04
Confirm packing and delivery
- You bring
- Receiving address, contact, access constraints, assembly location and any fixed launch date.
- Review together
- Confirm packing format, labels, shipping scope, expected dispatch and arrival assumptions. Keep production and transport timing separate.
- Before the next step
- A shared packing and delivery plan, with named responsibilities and a receiving check.
FROM CHINA TO YOUR RECEIVING POINT
Make the delivery
scope explicit.
A box quotation and a delivered-project budget can cover different things. Ask what is included and who owns each remaining item.
What does the price include?
Separate packaging, development, samples, inspection, freight and destination charges. Mark exclusions and responsibility for import-related costs in the quotation.
Who handles each handoff?
Name the party arranging collection, transport, import clearance and final delivery. Confirm the receiving contact and any warehouse requirements.
What happens at receipt?
Agree quantity and condition checks, records to retain, an issue-reporting window and how a proposed resolution is reviewed. Keep these terms in the order agreement.
PREPARE WITH YOUR TEAM
Keep the decisions
in one place.
Use the handoff worksheet to assign approvals, list open questions and check delivery responsibilities. Complete what is known; it does not replace a quotation or order agreement.

BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Which approvals move your order forward?
Build these checkpoints into your project agreement. Inspection scope, timing, fees and remedies are confirmed for each order.
Factory responsibilities & quality checkpoints ↗︎
Will the order match the sample?
Make the approved reference identifiable.
Agree the sample version, materials, artwork, finish and product-fit checks. Record which differences remain between a development sample and production.
Record to agree
Versioned sample scope, approval record and production specification.
Discuss this for my order ↗︎What if the artwork or quantity changes?
Review the impact before proceeding.
Identify the affected SKU and version. Confirm any effect on cost, sample approval and schedule before accepting the change.
Record to agree
Written change description, revised quotation or schedule, and named approval.
Discuss this for my order ↗︎What happens if a quality issue appears?
Agree a clear route to a reviewed resolution.
Keep the order reference, affected quantities, carton labels and photographs. Agree containment, investigation and the proposed disposition against the order specification.
Record to agree
Issue record, supporting evidence, agreed corrective action and reinspection where applicable.
Discuss this for my order ↗︎Can this support my launch date?
Separate production from transport.
Work back from the required receiving date. Confirm approval dependencies, dispatch assumptions, freight scope and destination responsibilities before committing.
Record to agree
Approval milestones, dispatch plan, shipping exclusions and receiving requirements.
Discuss this for my order ↗︎Will a repeat order stay consistent?
Start from the retained specification.
Reference the earlier order, approved artwork and sample. Confirm material availability, any supplier or process changes and the checks needed for the next batch.
Record to agree
Prior order reference, version comparison and repeat-order confirmation.
Discuss this for my order ↗︎Bring the decision to your team.
Use the order-readiness checklist to capture open questions before a deposit or production approval.

BEFORE AN ORDER IS CONFIRMED
One agreed scope.
No scattered approvals.
Bring the following into the written order agreement. An enquiry receipt, quotation draft or sample review is only one step; none confirms a production order on its own.
Specification
Approved sample and artwork versions, dimensions, materials, finish and SKU quantities.
Commercial agreement
Quotation version, currency, inclusions, exclusions and agreed payment milestones.
Delivery & inspection
Production dependencies, dispatch plan, delivery responsibilities and acceptance criteria.
Named confirmation
Buyer approver and supplier contracting entity, with unresolved items closed or explicitly recorded.
This is a preparation checklist. Online payment and customer order confirmation are not enabled.
