Our OEM Process

A proven 4-step workflow that gets your product to market efficiently.

Requirement Analysis

Share your vision — target market, price point, desired features. We'll recommend the optimal material, adhesive, and sizing combination based on 20 years of R&D data.

Sample Development

We produce 3-5 prototype versions within 5 business days. Test adhesion, comfort, and breathability. Refine until it meets your standards.

Mass Production & QC

Once approved, we move to production. Every batch passes: adhesion test, skin irritation test, dimensional check, packaging integrity check. ISO 13485 standard.

4

Delivery & Ongoing Support

We arrange shipping to your door (FOB/CIF/DDP). After delivery, your account manager stays in touch for reorders, new product development, and market feedback.

What Buyers Worry About — And How We Control It

Six failure modes that cost a brand money, and the control we run against each one.

Strips lose hold overnight

Potential risk

A strip that lifts at 3 a.m. becomes a one-star review and a refund, whatever the listing promised.

Our control

Every batch is peel-and-stick tested, held to a benchmark of ≥80% of initial peel force after 10+ hours on simulated skin. Results are logged per batch.

Painful removal, residue

Potential risk

Removal complaints drive returns even when the strip itself did its job.

Our control

Removal peel force is held below the threshold that causes discomfort or residue, tested on simulated skin, cotton, polyester and smooth surfaces.

Skin reactions on nightly wear

Potential risk

A reaction on a product worn every night is the fastest way to lose a marketplace listing.

Our control

Skin-contact materials are tested for irritation to ISO 10993-23:2021 and for sensitisation, and base materials are verified latex-free. Reports are on request, and we still recommend a patch test before a full launch.

Batch-to-batch drift

Potential risk

The third reorder feels different from the first — different colour, different peel, different size.

Our control

In-process monitoring is logged against tolerances: cutting ±0.1 mm, adhesive coating thickness ±5 μm, spring-band tension ±3%, web speed ±2%.

Defects found after landing

Potential risk

Without traceability you cannot tell which units are affected, so you end up recalling all of them.

Our control

Every box and sachet carries a scannable lot code linking back to production date, material batch and operator ID. Batch records are archived for five years and retain samples are kept.

Paperwork goes missing

Potential risk

A listing blocked or a shipment held because one document was missing from the set.

Our control

A Certificate of Conformance ships with each batch, and the package for your sales channel is set out on our resource library — what is public now, and what we send on request.

The benchmarks and tolerances above come from HLK internal QC records and retained batch documentation; batch QC reports are available on request, and the full sequence is set out in our six-step quality control process. Tolerances are internal in-process monitoring targets, not a regulatory specification. You can also check the product yourself — request a free sample kit. HLK makes no clinical efficacy claims for nasal strips or mouth tape.

OEM & Ordering FAQs

Straight answers for brand owners, importers, and distributors.

What is the MOQ for OEM / private-label orders?
Standard products start at 500 boxes — a low entry point for a certified manufacturer. Fully custom packaging (printed boxes, display units) starts at 5,000 boxes. Tell us your launch plan and we will find a workable structure.
Are you a manufacturer or a trading company?
We are a manufacturer. HLK operates its own 3,500 m² production base in Quanzhou, China, with 5 automated lines and 2M+ units monthly capacity. You buy factory-direct — no trading-company markup — with full visibility into materials, QC and lead times.
Do you offer wholesale pricing for distributors?
Yes. Alongside OEM/private label, we supply our stock HLK product range at tiered wholesale prices for importers, distributors and retailers. Mixed-SKU orders are welcome, and exclusive territory agreements are available for qualified distributors.
Can I start with wholesale and move to private label later?
Absolutely. Many distributors start with our stock range to test their market, then upgrade to private label packaging once volumes justify it. The transition is seamless — same production lines, same QC standards, same account manager.
How fast can I get samples?
Standard samples ship within 1–3 days and are free for qualified buyers. Custom OEM prototypes take 3–5 business days to develop; most clients receive them within 1–2 weeks including express courier (DHL/UPS/FedEx).
Can you print my logo, flag, or custom artwork on the strips?
Absolutely. We support full-color custom printing — national flags, team logos, brand patterns — directly on the strip fabric. Send your high-resolution artwork and our in-house design team adapts it to the strip shape free of charge.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
CE (EU MDR 2017/745) technical file, MHRA registration with per-SKU UKCA declarations of conformity, ISO 13485 certificate, SGS test reports, MSDS & COA, REACH and PFAS-free statements, plus FDA cosmetic facility registration (MoCRA) with product listing. Full documentation is available for your regulatory submissions.
Can you handle the FDA registration or MoCRA listing for my brand?
Yes, and which route applies depends on whose name appears on the label. If your brand name is on the label you are the MoCRA responsible person: we supply the facility FEI, the INCI ingredient list and product documentation, and support your Cosmetics Direct submission. If HLK is named on the label as manufacturer, we file the cosmetic product listing for you. We also coordinate the US Agent requirement through our appointed agent. Note that FDA cosmetic facility registration and product listing is not an approval programme, and FDA issues no certificates for it — HLK makes no FDA approval claim.
Can you support UDI and EU MDR registration requirements?
Yes. We supply Basic UDI-DI information on request, along with the technical documentation your EU authorized representative needs for MDR device registration and EUDAMED listing.
What are typical lead times and shipping terms?
Mass production runs 7–15 days after sample approval. We ship worldwide under EXW, FOB (Xiamen/Shanghai), CIF, or DDP — including duty-paid DDP solutions for the US, EU, Brazil, and the Middle East.
