In the OEM/ODM customization cooperation of cosmetic bags, the most frequently asked questions by brand owners, wholesalers, and purchasers of gift channels are:

· Why is MOQ 1,000 pieces?

· Why would changing a structure affect the delivery date?

· What is the normal delivery cycle?

· Does the factory have professional manufacturing capabilities?

These issues may seem independent, but in fact, they are all related to one core: whether there is sufficient understanding of the production process.

For customers who pursue flexible customization, high cost performance and quick delivery, mastering the production process is not only a “knowledge reserve” before procurement, but also the foundation for ensuring the smooth implementation of the project:

1. Understand the rationality of delivery dates: Avoid affecting quality due to blindly compressing time;

3. Enhance customization efficiency: Confirm the feasibility of structure, process and materials in advance to reduce modification costs;

3. Judging the professionalism of suppliers: The process details can reveal whether the factory has mature production lines and the ability to integrate customization.

This article will take you deep into Topfeel's cosmetic bag factory, helping you understand how a custom-made cosmetic bag is manufactured.

The Factory Strength of Topfeel

To understand the production process, it is necessary to start with the basic capabilities of the factory.

Factory Scale and Equipment

· 5,000㎡ standard factory

     Be capable of ensuring the smooth progress of large quantities of orders

· 10 mature production lines

     Meet the concurrent production of multi-category orders

· 5 cutting machines

     It features high precision, can reduce human errors during the cutting process, and enhance material utilization and efficiency.

· 9 computerized sewing machines

     By controlling the density of stitches and the thread trajectory through the program, the sewn parts of the bag can be made more firm and exquisite.

Professional Talents

· 2 CAD pattern makers

     Through CAD software, pattern making and structural design are carried out. Based on the design drawings or creative ideas provided by the customer, the shape, proportion and internal structure of the bag are precisely restored.

· 5 sample developers

     Proficient in various material cutting, sewing and structural optimization techniques, capable of converting drafts into 1:1 restored physical samples.

With systematic equipment configuration and an experienced team, Topfeel ensures that every cosmetic bag meets the quality standards and delivery requirements expected by customers.

Topfeel's Standardized Production Process for Cosmetic Bags

Having solid manufacturing capabilities is only the foundation. To transform an conceived cosmetic bag into a mass-produced product, a complete set of orderly and standardized production processes is also required.

1. Material Procurement

After confirming the style and material, our purchasing staff will uniformly purchase the main materials, auxiliary materials(lining, padding & reinforcement) and accessories.

We insist on establishing long-term cooperative relationships with high-quality material suppliers to ensure the stability of the material supply chain.

Meanwhile, we will conduct incoming quality inspection on each batch of main and auxiliary materials to ensure controllable color differences, stable physical properties, and meet export and brand-level standards.

· Reference for material preparation cycle: 7 to 10 days

     Depend on the type of material required. If the material is special, the time may be extended.

2.Customization

Topfeel has professional custom developers who can quickly respond to customers' demands for drawings or samples, and provide customized services such as structural pattern making and color matching. We support a variety of logo and pattern customization processes to meet the diverse expressions of brands.

· Reference cycle for process customization: 10 to 15 days

3. Precision Cutting

After all the materials are gathered, the cutting process will begin.

Topfeel is equipped with high-precision cutting machines, which can reduce human errors during the cutting process and improve cutting efficiency, ensuring that the dimensions of fabric, lining, interlayer and other cut pieces are consistent.

4. Sewing Process

The sewing process is the core stage of shaping a cosmetic bag, involving multiple sub-steps. Topfeel ensures the beauty and firmness of every stitch and thread through a standard procedure:

· Sew bone strip

     Sew bone strips (generally waterproof materials such as PVC/TPU) into strip-shaped leather materials.

· Zipper sewing

     Sew the zipper patch and the main zipper to ensure the zipper does not get stuck or derail easily during daily use.

· Handle strap sewing

     Step 1:Automatic sewing of hand strap 

     Through high-speed automatic sewing equipment, hand-held straps are sewn in batches to ensure uniform threading and consistent tension.

     In actual production, a skilled worker can continuously sew a lifting belt that is restricted by 30 meters.

     Step 2:Sew the handle strap to the bag pieces

     The sewn strap is precisely combined with the bag body through a computerized sewing machine. This step ensures that the bag does not easily come loose or break under load.

· Sewing two different pieces together

     The bag flap, bottom panel, and inner lining are sewn together. Faux stitching is sometimes used to enhance seam appearance, serving both decorative and functional purposes.

· Reinforce edge with bone strip

     Sew the sewn bone strips along the edge of the makeup bag lid or bottom to enhance the three-dimensional effect and support of the bag.

· Overedging seam & sew the straps from the inside

     Fabrics or leather are prone to fuzz after cutting. By wrapping the edges of the material to seal them, the situation of material shedding can be avoided.

     Meanwhile, sewing the straps from the inside can hide the stitching or burrs, making the inner structure of the bag more flat and beautiful, and reflecting a sense of high-quality craftsmanship.

· Sewing Cycle: 5 days.

     If a single style is produced in a concentrated manner, ideally, about 4,000 pieces can be completed per day.

5.Heating & Turn the Finished Bag Over

“Heating” refers to the process of shining heated light on bags made of materials such as PU and PVC after sewing to ensure that the bag shape is crisp and does not deform.At the same time, heating is also to better carry out the step of turning the bag overf.

After the bag has been fully exposed to light, the next step can be taken – turning it over. Turning the bag is to make the front of the sewn bag face outward, thereby hiding the rough edges and stitching inside the bag.

There is no strict sequence for the two steps. It depends on the structure and material of the bag.

6.Quality Inspection

After completing all the production processes, we will inspect each batch of bags one by one, focusing on key parts such as the appearance, zippers and seams:

· Whether the exterior of the bag is clean and tidy, and whether the logo and accessories are complete and flawless.

· Zippers must undergo repeated open-close cycling tests to guarantee smooth operation without jamming.

· Seams must exhibit neat and even stitches, secure fastening with no loose threads or skipped stitches, and all thread ends must be trimmed cleanly.

Only the bags that have passed the quality inspection can enter the packaging process.

7. Packaging and Shipment

The final qualified cosmetic bags will be custom-packaged according to the customer's requirements to ensure good protection.

After being packaged and labeled according to the order, the bags are dispatched to ensure they are delivered safely and on time to the customers.

Conclusion

Through understanding the production process of the cosmetic bag, we believe you now have the answers to the key questions raised at the beginning.

· Why is MOQ 1,000 pieces?

     Production involves fixed costs such as pattern making, material preparation and mold opening. Only when a certain quantity is reached can cost efficiency be guaranteed.

· Why would changing a structure affect the delivery date?

     Structural adjustment will lead to drawing modification, sample remaking and process adjustment, thereby prolonging the overall cycle.

· What is the normal delivery cycle?

     After the sample is confirmed and the materials are in place, it usually takes about 25 days, which can be flexibly adjusted according to the structural complexity.

· Does the factory have professional manufacturing capabilities?

     Through rigorous each process, advanced equipment support and multi-process coordinated management, Topfeel ensures that every link is completed efficiently and accurately.
