Export Logistics

Shipping & Delivery

Factory-direct export logistics for furniture mechanism orders — lead times, documentation, packaging, and order process.

The content on this page is provided for general informational purposes and does not constitute legal advice. Shipping terms, customs requirements, and trade regulations vary by destination market and change over time. We strongly recommend confirming current requirements with your freight forwarder and customs broker before placing an order.

Production Schedule

Standard Production Lead Times

Catalog Mechanisms

25–35 days from order confirmation & deposit

For catalog mechanisms — chair tilt, recliner linkages, sofa bed frames, lift-top fittings, hinge systems — standard production lead time is 25–35 days from order confirmation and deposit receipt. That window covers the full production run: material staging, stamping, welding, surface treatment, assembly, 100% functional testing, and export packing.

OEM / ODM Tooling Projects

OEM and ODM projects with new tooling run on a separate schedule. We don't give a single delivery date for tooling projects — we give you a milestone breakdown:

  • Tooling fabrication complete
  • First sample
  • Sample approval
  • Production start
  • Production complete
  • Inspection
  • Ship date

Each milestone is a real checkpoint, not a buffer we padded to protect ourselves.

The most common source of delay we see: buyers sending revised specifications after production has started. Lock your artwork, dimensions, and finish spec before order confirmation. A spec change mid-run costs time for both sides.

Global Reach

Export Markets We Ship To

We export factory-direct to five regions. No trading company in the chain — your order is quoted, produced, inspected, and packed here, and the export documentation comes from the same team that managed your production run.

North America
Europe
Middle East
Southeast Asia
Australia

European Buyers

CE declaration of conformity and SGS test reports ship with the order. Documentation handled without you having to brief us.

North American Importers

Material and compliance documentation their customs brokers need for HTS classification — provided as standard.

Middle East & Southeast Asia

Coordinated with certificate of origin and any destination-specific requirements your freight forwarder flags.

Logistics Engineering

Container Packing & Freight Efficiency

40HQ Container Optimized

Packaging is engineered for 40HQ container loading, not designed around what's convenient on the assembly line. Carton dimensions for the main product lines are sized and stacked to the pallet configurations that maximize cubic utilization in a standard container — your freight forwarder isn't improvising at the warehouse.

Retail-Ready & Branded Packaging

For buyers who need retail-ready packaging or branded cartons with your logo and product information, that's handled as part of the OEM arrangement. We run branded packaging regularly; it doesn't add lead time if the artwork is confirmed before production starts.

Flat-Pack & KD Configurations

Flat-pack and KD configurations are available on select mechanisms where the geometry allows it. If landed freight cost is a constraint for your market, ask us about KD options when you request a quote.

Compliance & Paperwork

Export Documentation Provided

Standard Document Set — Every Shipment

  • Commercial invoice
  • Packing list
  • Bill of lading
  • Certificate of origin
  • Product test reports

European Market Shipments

CE declaration of conformity and SGS audit reports ship with the order. For buyers supplying into RoHS-regulated markets (EU, California), trivalent chromium passivation documentation for the zinc plating process is available with shipment.

Additional Documentation

If your customs broker or compliance team needs additional documentation — material certifications, mill reports, specific test standards — flag it before production closes. Chasing documents after the container ships is a problem we'd rather both avoid.

All Order Sizes Scheduled & Shipped

At our 3,000,000-unit annual capacity across 6 dedicated production lines, a 500-unit order and a 50,000-unit order both get scheduled and shipped — the difference is in how we stage the production run, not whether we take the order.

Line Separation by Product Category

Line separation by product category means your chair mechanism order doesn't queue behind a large sofa bed run.

  • Your order has a dedicated slot in the right line from day one
  • No cross-category queue delays
  • Predictable lead time regardless of concurrent orders

Blanket Orders & Scheduled Releases

For buyers who need consistent supply across multiple shipments, we support blanket order arrangements. You commit to a total annual volume; we schedule production in releases that match your inventory cycle. That structure gives you:

  • Unit pricing at the committed volume tier, not per-release quantity
  • Production slots reserved in advance — no scrambling for capacity at peak season
  • Predictable cash flow on both sides

02

Receive Quotation

We return a detailed quotation: unit price, tooling cost if applicable, packaging spec, lead time, and FOB port of loading.

03

Confirm & Deposit

Confirm the order and remit the deposit. Production is scheduled from deposit receipt — not from PI issuance.

Production runs with milestone updates. Pre-shipment inspection report issued before balance payment is requested.

05

Ship & Document

Balance payment received, container loaded and sealed. Full document set couriered or sent electronically within 3 working days of vessel departure.

What to Include in Your RFQ

The more complete your RFQ, the faster we can return an accurate quotation. Useful information to include:

  • Mechanism type (chair tilt, recliner linkage, sofa bed frame, lift-top, hinge, etc.)
  • Target quantity and whether this is a one-time order or ongoing program
  • Destination country and port
  • Any OEM requirements: custom dimensions, finish, branding, packaging
  • Compliance requirements for your market (CE, RoHS, BIFMA, etc.)
  • Target delivery window if you have one

Payment Terms

Standard payment structure is T/T 30% deposit against PI, balance before shipment. For established accounts with order history, we discuss extended terms on a case-by-case basis. We do not offer open account terms to first-time buyers.
