Model / Size / Colour Combination Logic
A disciplined structure avoids over-fragmenting your initial order while gathering actionable market sell-through data.
- ✓ Start with Core: Anchor 60%+ volume in safe, fast-turning sizes (e.g. UK Double/King or EU 140/160cm).
- ✓ Limit Initial Colours: We recommend 2–3 neutral upholstery tones (e.g. Cream, Grey, Oat) in your first container.
- ✓ Order-specific Mix: Final SKU ratios are engineered to match your target sales velocity and destination regulations.
Bed + Mattress Combination Planning
Both product lines are manufactured in-house. Mix and match to complete your catalog line-up:
CBM & 40HQ Container Planning
We do not provide vague loading estimates. Before entering production, we calculate every centimeter and kilogram against verified carton dimensions.
- • Selected Models: Headboard thickness & curved wing designs consume different CBM.
- • Size Mix: Single (90cm) vs King (180cm) dimensional proportions.
- • Packaging Structure: Standard KD vs Mail-Order reinforced drop-test packing.
- • Final Order Quantities: Precise SKU breakdown confirmed upon Deposit / PI.
Real Loading, Packaging & Product Staging
Pre-shipment verification protocols ensuring zero transport crush and swift 3PL sorting.
Gravity-Tiered 40HQ Loading
Heavy flat KD bed cartons form the rigid lower ballast. Lightweight roll mattresses occupy upper voids, guaranteeing 96%+ fill without carton crush.
Packaging Standard
5-Layer Mail-Order Cartons
High-density edge guards and 200g/m² heavy craft cartons protect gas-lift mechanisms and upholstered side rails during courier handling.
Pre-Shipment QC
Sample Assembly & Swatch Check
Batch sample pre-assembly verifies hydraulic lift action, wood slat tolerances, and fabric colour accuracy against signed reference swatches.
