Buyer FAQ: Sourcing Shower Enclosures Direct from the Factory

Email us your target model or drawing and we confirm the sample fee within 24 ore. For qualified distributors and project buyers we provide free samples of standard models – you only cover express freight, typically Dollaro statunitense 80-150 by DHL or FedEx door-to-door. Sample payments are accepted by Western Union or T/T, and the fee is credited against your first bulk order.

Il nostro MOQ è 10 sets per model for standard specifications – one of the lowest among Foshan shower enclosure factories. Mixed-model container loading is supported, so you can combine sliding doors, pivot doors and walk-in screens in a single shipment to test your market without overstocking. The 10-set floor applies per model and size, and popular stocked specifications can often ship even faster than standard lead times.

SÌ. First-time buyers can start with a 10-set trial order at standard pricing to validate quality and sell-through. Once annual volume reaches 200+ imposta, you unlock tiered distributor pricing, priority production slots and co-funded showroom display samples.

Standard-model samples ship in 15 giorni from confirmation. Fully custom samples – non-standard sizes, special glass textures or custom hardware finishes – take 15-20 giorni including shop-drawing approval. Every sample is photographed and video-tested before dispatch so you receive pre-shipment evidence.

SÌ – Sopra 60% of our output ships under customer brands. We produce under NDA with laser-etched or silk-printed logos on glass, branded hardware, private-label cartons and installation manuals in your language. Your tooling and artwork are stored separately and never shared with other buyers. A complete OEM onboarding – from signed NDA to first branded shipment – typically takes 45-60 giorni including sample approval.

Glass thickness from 6 A 12 mm, custom widths and heights up to 2,300 mm, curved and angled panels, and glass options including clear, ultra-clear, smerigliato, fluted and nano-coated. Hardware finishes cover chrome, nero opaco, oro spazzolato, brushed nickel and PVD colors – matched to your swatch within 7 giorni.

Size and finish customization on existing profiles carries no extra tooling cost and keeps the standard 10-set MOQ. A new aluminum profile extrusion requires a one-time tooling investment of typically Dollaro statunitense 1,500-4,000 per profile with an MOQ of 50-100 imposta – and the tooling belongs to you.

Nostro 12-person R&squadra D returns shop drawings in DWG or PDF within 3-5 giorni lavorativi of receiving your brief or site measurements.

All tempered glass is certified to IN 12150-1 (CE, Europa), SGCC and ANSI Z97.1 / CPSC 16 CFR 1201 (America del Nord), E AS/NZS 2208 (Australia & New Zealand). Certificates and third-party test reports ship with every order documentation package, and original glass sheets are sourced from Xinyi Glass. The factory itself runs ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certified management systems, so product certificates are backed by audited processes.

Untreated tempered glass carries an industry-typical spontaneous breakage rate of around 0.1-0.3% due to NiS inclusions. We offer heat soak testing (HST) A 290°C for 2 ore, which pre-shatters at-risk panels and reduces field breakage to below 0.05% – recommended for frameless and project orders.

Cerniere, rollers and handles are 304 stainless steel or solid brass with electroplated or PVD finishes. Every batch passes a 72-hour neutral salt spray test to ISO 9227, and rollers are cycle-tested to 100,000 open-close cycles – specified for coastal and high-humidity markets.

We run a 4-stage system: incoming material inspection (IQC) on glass and aluminum, in-process QC (IPQC) at cutting, slotting and drilling stations, 100% final assembly and function testing, and pre-shipment inspection (PSI) with AQL 2.5 sampling. Third-party inspection by SGS, TÜV or your own agent is welcome before loading.

Shower doors carry a 5-year warranty and spare parts 3 anni, backed by our ISO 9001 certified quality system. Claims are answered within 12 ore, replacement parts ship free within the warranty period, and every unit we sell receives lifetime online technical support.

SÌ. Every shipment includes printed installation manuals plus QR-linked video guides covering leveling, wall-profile adjustment and glass handling. Our engineers answer installer questions by WhatsApp or video call within 12 ore, and wall-tolerance details are flagged at the shop-drawing stage so site preparation happens before the glass arrives.

Each set is wrapped in EPE foam and pearl cotton at all glass contact points, then packed in a 5-layer export carton; heavy frameless panels get an additional wooden crate or steel rack. Packaging is drop-tested to ISTA standards, and every carton is photographed at packing for full traceability. Wooden crates are fumigation-compliant for ISPM 15 markets, and project orders can include a 1-2% spare-parts kit (seals, rollers, viti) so install crews never stop for a missing fastener.

Our transit breakage rate stays below 0.3% across roughly 220,000 units shipped annually. If damage occurs, send photos and the carton label number within 15 days of discharge and we ship free replacements with your next order – or by express for urgent project sites.

Standard orders ship 25-35 giorni after deposit and artwork confirmation, depending on quantity and specifications. Samples take 15 giorni, repeat orders of approved specs hold the shorter end of the range, and we keep reserved production slots for annual-program customers. Plan around two peak windows – Chinese New Year (January-February) and Canton Fair season (April and October) – when we recommend confirming orders 3-4 weeks earlier.

We quote FOB Foshan or Shenzhen as standard and regularly ship CIF, CFR and DDP to North America, Europe and Australia. For DDP orders our forwarder handles customs clearance and last-mile delivery to your warehouse, so you receive a single all-in landed cost.

Project buyers can split one production batch across multiple delivery addresses – hotels, distribution hubs or job sites – with individual carton markings per destination.
