Faced with numerous custom lubricating jelly manufacturers in the market, brand owners are often dazzled and unsure how to choose. Finding a "reliable" OEM factory not only concerns product quality but also affects brand reputation and market competitiveness. A truly reliable manufacturer should excel in multiple dimensions such as qualifications, production, R&D, and service.
1.Verify Hardcore Qualifications: The "Passport" for Safety and Compliance.
Production Qualifications: Does it have a legal production license? For medical-grade products, does it possess corresponding medical device production licenses and product registration certificates (e.g., Class II medical device registration certificate)?
Quality System Certifications: Has it passed internationally recognized quality management system certifications like ISO 13485 (Medical Device Quality Management System) or ISO 22716 (Cosmetics GMP)?
Export Certifications (if needed): If the product is planned for export, does the manufacturer have target market access certifications, such as US FDA registration/filing, EU CE certification, etc.? These qualifications are fundamental for whether the product can be legally and compliantly launched.
2.Inspect Production Strength: The "Hard Support" for Quality and Capacity.
Production Environment: Does it have standard-compliant production workshops, such as Class 100,000 or higher-grade cleanrooms? Does it strictly implement GMP or similar production norms?
Production Equipment: Is it equipped with advanced automated production lines? What is the condition and maintenance of the equipment?
Quality Control System: From raw material entry to finished product release, is there a strict, complete quality inspection process and standard? How many quality inspection steps are there? Can batch inspection reports be provided?
3.Assess R&D Capability: The "Intelligent Brain" for Innovation and Customization.
Formula Reserve: Does it have a rich library of mature formulas (water-based, silicone-based, functional, etc.) for selection or reference?
Customization Capability: Does it support personalized adjustments to product viscosity, pH, fragrance, skin feel, active ingredient addition, etc.? What is the professional level of the R&D team?
Sampling Efficiency: How fast are samples provided? Does it support free or low-cost sampling?
4.Review Service System: The "Lubricant" for Smooth Cooperation.
One-Stop Service: Can it provide full-process services from product concept, formula development, packaging design, regulatory consulting, manufacturing to logistics and shipping?
Response Speed and Communication Efficiency: Is the response to customer needs timely? Is communication smooth and professional?
Cooperation Cases and Reputation: Does it have experience cooperating with well-known brands? What is its industry reputation?
5.Consider Overall Cost and MOQ: The "Balancing Act" for Commercial Viability.
Under the premise of meeting the above conditions, then comprehensively evaluate whether its quotation, payment methods, minimum order quantity requirements, etc., align with your budget and planning.
