Plastic Bag OEM Guide: From Sampling to Mass Production
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing) is the standard approach for businesses wanting branded plastic bags. Whether you need logo-printed vest bags, branded hole punch bags, or custom-spec flat bags, understanding the process prevents communication errors, repeated sampling, and delivery delays.
Step 1: Requirements Confirmation
Prepare: bag type (vest/hole punch/flat), dimensions (W x H in cm), thickness, material (HDPE/LDPE), print colors, annual volume estimate, food-grade certification needs, and packaging specifications.
Step 2: Quotation
Pricing factors: material costs (market prices, specifications), printing fees (plate fees + per-run costs), order quantity (larger = lower unit cost), and special packaging requirements. Note: plate fees are one-time; quotations typically valid 30-60 days.
Step 3: Sampling
The most critical confirmation step. Verify dimensions, thickness, print colors, material feel, and transparency against your requirements. Allow 7-14 working days for samples.
Step 4: Revision
Common adjustments include size fine-tuning, color correction, and position adjustments. Minimize revision rounds by thoroughly confirming artwork before sampling.
Step 5: Mass Production
Sign production confirmation, pay deposit, and confirm delivery details.
Step 6: Shipping
Products packaged per specifications, labeled with product info, and delivered to your designated location throughout Taiwan.
