Production in China to European standards

Start with a detailed brief: product type, volumes, quality standards, required certifications. Eva Solutions searches Alibaba, 1688.com, local directories, and our own contact network. Every candidate goes through on-site vetting — company records, factory walkthrough, references, and capacity check — before we put them on your shortlist.

Rough timelines: samples in 2–4 weeks, mass production in 10–40 days. If tooling is involved (injection molds, dies), add another 2–6 weeks. We set a realistic schedule before anything starts.

Once the spec is approved, the factory produces prototypes. We inspect and document them on camera, then compare against your requirements. We can express-ship physical samples to Germany if needed. Mass production only starts after your written sign-off.

Three checkpoints: pre-production (materials and spec comprehension), in-line (random sampling during the run), and pre-shipment (full AQL inspection). Every stage is backed by a photo/video report.

Issues caught mid-production are resolved with the factory before the rest of the batch is made. At final inspection, you review our report and decide: approve, rework, or reject. Contractual terms for these scenarios are locked in before production begins.

It depends on the product: CE and RoHS for electronics, REACH and CPNP for cosmetics, EN 71 for toys, BattG compliance for batteries. As the importer of record, product liability falls on you — lab testing before shipment isn't optional. Eva Solutions coordinates all required testing in China.

Unit price depends on materials, complexity, and volume. On top of that: tooling, samples, packaging, and QC. We provide a line-by-line cost breakdown so there are no surprises.

They vary widely. Simple goods (packaging, textiles) can start at 100–500 units. More complex products requiring tooling usually start at 1,000–5,000 units. We negotiate MOQs on your behalf and can source factories with lower minimums when needed.

Industry standard is 30% deposit up front, 70% after final inspection and before shipment. Letters of Credit work for larger orders. Full prepayment is rare outside of sample orders. Eva Solutions manages the payment flow and builds contractual protections around every milestone.

Register your trademark in China before production — the country runs on a first-to-file system. Beyond that: sign an NNN agreement with every factory, file design patents for product shapes, and include explicit IP clauses in your manufacturing contract. Our China-based lawyers handle all of it.

Alibaba is a marketplace — you browse, negotiate, and carry the risk yourself. Eva Solutions is your sourcing and production partner with an office in China: we find the right factory, verify it in person, negotiate in Mandarin, run QC, and manage shipping. Full service versus a search engine.

Yes. We manage the entire chain: production in China, consolidation at our local warehouse, international freight (sea, air, rail, or road) to Germany, and if you need it — warehousing, pick & pack, and returns. One partner, zero handoff friction.
