Packaging FAQ

What is the MOQ for custom packaging?+

Standard MOQ starts at 100 units per shade. Custom molds (for unique shapes) carry higher MOQ — confirmed on brief.

Can I use my own bottle?+

Often yes, if your bottle is suitable for fill and export. Share the bottle spec and we will evaluate compatibility.

Do you offer eco-friendly packaging?+

We support recyclable PET, glass, and refillable formats. Bio-based and post-consumer recycled (PCR) options are available on inquiry.

What is the lead time for custom packaging?+

Stock packaging follows standard lead time (3–7 days after formula and artwork confirmation sample, 25–35 days after sample approval bulk). Custom molds add tooling lead time — confirmed per project.

Can I mix packaging types within one program?+

Yes — many brands run two or three formats (e.g. 100ml PET hero + 30ml dropper treatment) in a single product line.
