Sourcing sanitary ware in China
Sanitary ware is an essential part of every building project, no matter if commercial building
project, hotel, restaurant, or residential project. You can create great cost savings by directly
buying your sanitary ware in China.
Almost all big brands – like KOHLER – manufacture their sanitary ware nowadays in China. The
quality standards for sanitary ware in China have improved dramatically over the past years and
even local designs are now competing with international brand standards. Chinas manufacturing
a hub for sanitary ware is foremost Foshan, Guangzhou, Hangzhou and Chaozhou, where many
manufacturers are located, producing high-end basins, bathtubs, toilets and more.
Since international trade has become more accessible with Alibaba.com and another trading
platform, more private labels have been established in the field of sanitary ware and similar
product categories. But not all of them also deliver the quality they often promise. Many
Chinese sanitary ware suppliers still try to save cost and therefore compromise on quality and
cut corners, so that you might end up with unexpected quality problems. But on the other hand,
the fact that all big European brands for example manufacture their sanitary ware in China
shows that there are super high-end quality products coming from China. We help you to cut
out all risk and get the best sanitary ware in class.
While the big brands still often lead new trends in product design, Chinese sanitary ware
manufacturers have caught up with their design deficits. There are many similar and very
modern options available, without paying the premium for having the branded product.
Historical charts also show that the market share of smaller brands/ sanitary ware companies
and private labels is constantly growing, which is mainly caused by the tremendous product
developments of Chinese manufacturers. We help you to find the right brand for you – we also
can label your sanitary ware according to your brand ideas, even with your private label.
Most sanitary ware we source in China is dedicated to construction projects. We work in close
collaboration with the project designers and architects to find the perfect sanitary ware. In the
first step we often receive a BOQ, or procurement schedule with suggested models (often of big
brands), which we then try to match with similar options from our supplier network. After that,
we will issue specifications sheets and drawings for approval. If needed we also build mock-up
bathrooms, so you can see how all the sanitary ware will “play together”.
With our wide network of suppliers and manufacturers, we have established relationships that
grand us better prices. Also, these suppliers are tested and approved by us, so that we can stand
with our name for the product quality that is promised. Furthermore, we have a stringent
quality management system with our suppliers, that helps us control and solve quality issues as
soon as they appear. Even though our suppliers are established and approved, we will still
always do a quality control on all delivers to ensure the quality levels are ideal. Besides these
reasons, we are also able to search for unique sanitary ware on local markets, which is essential
when order quantities are rather small. Or we set up a custom model just for you when
quantities are big enough.
