Do you intend to import bulk goods from China?

Before importing in bulk from China, get a sample. It’s best to see and feel a product before it’s made to see if it meets your expectations. Also, make sure the supplier is legit. As importers, we must tell you everything about obtaining product samples, including the cost, type, and lead time.

Frequently asked questions

Aroom Global is a sourcing and manufacturing agent with over 7 years of experience. Listed below are some of the most frequently asked questions regarding product sample and design.

How much does it cost to produce a samples?2023-08-05T16:44:28+00:00

To manufacture to your specifications, a new mold or tooling is required, as well as the size and type of the product.

When ordering factory samples, you generally only have to pay for shipping.

When ordering customized product samples, the cost may vary from $5 to $10,000 depending on the cost of tooling (if applicable).

As an example:
In the case of ODM electronics, the price range is $10 to $500
In the case of OEM electronics, the price range is between $500 and $5,000

Can you tell me how long it takes to make a product sample?2023-08-05T16:48:14+00:00

Depending on how complex the specifications are and how capable the suppliers are, this may vary.
A simple sample of a material can be sent via DHL or FedEx in a day or two, whereas a more complex product can take over a year to develop.

Most suppliers take the following time frame:

  • The delivery time for material samples (in-stock) is 3 to 7 days
  • Samples of materials (made to order): 14 to 30 days
  • Samples made by injection molding require 45 to 70 days to complete
What is the best way to communicate my product specifications prior to purchasing a sample of the product?2023-08-05T16:52:05+00:00

The majority of specifications are jotted down when a purchase order is given. As the main document, it usually contains the following information:

  • MEASURMENTS
  • COLORS
  • MATERIALS CERTIFICATIONS
  • VOLTAGE AND PLUGS
  • PACKING STANDARDS
  • PRODUCT APPLICATIONS
  • PATENT PROTECTION

The supplier will use this document during the production of samples. Due to the fact that this document will be passed between engineers and subcontractors (i.e., material suppliers), it is very important that the product specification be as simple and straightforward as possible. You should not leave anything open to interpretation, as this can easily lead to misunderstandings.

Is it okay if I send product samples to my factory and ask them to make it that way?2023-08-05T16:56:13+00:00

The answer is yes, and sometimes it is easier to ‘communicate’ your requirements by sending a physical reference sample.

Even so, the supplier must still provide counter-samples made in their factory using materials supplied by their subcontractors. It is important to remember that one of the key reasons you need product samples is in order to test the supplier’s ability to make the product according to your specifications.
