Henan, China
Working with the European Union
B2B only
Pet products from Henan, without the layers in between.
We are a sourcing office based in Henan, China, working for importers, wholesalers and
private-label brands across Europe. Our focus is the durable end of the category — travel
crates, furniture and cat trees, grooming equipment, and connected devices such as smart
litter boxes and feeders — where tooling, certification and inspection decide whether the
goods actually sell.

01 — What we cover
Five categories, one sourcing desk.
We deliberately stay narrow: the durable, tooling-heavy end of the category, plus the connected
devices now moving into it. Every line below is one where we already know the factories, the
material costs and the failure points that come up in inspection.
01
Travel & transport
Airline-compliant crates, strollers, car seats and soft carriers. The lines where one latch or one dimension decides whether the product is sellable at all.
PP / ABS shell · aluminium frame · 600D oxford · steel mesh · IATA sizing
02
Furniture & rest
Beds, cat trees, scratchers, pens and gates. Bulky, tooling-heavy and slow to re-source — which is exactly why the factory relationship matters.
Plywood & MDF · sisal · memory foam · powder-coated steel
03
Grooming equipment
Dryers, grooming tables, clippers and shears. Electrics and mechanics in one product, so heat rise, noise and switch life all have to be tested.
ABS housing · stainless steel · brushless motors · LVD / EMC
04
Connected devices
Smart litter boxes, feeders, fountains, cameras and trackers. Higher unit value and far heavier certification — and the category where one missing battery document stops the container.
CE-RED · RoHS · UN38.3 · WEEE · app & firmware coordination
05
Private label & custom
From your artwork file to a shelf-ready carton: tooling, colour matching, packaging, barcode and importer labelling.
Tooling and MOQ quoted per product · retail-ready packaging
02 — How we work
Four steps, no surprises in between.
The same sequence on every order, whether it is a 500-piece trial or a full container. You always know which step you are on and what happens next.
01
Enquiry
Send a specification, a photo, a sample, or just a category. We come back within one business day with feasibility and a realistic price band — not a placeholder number.
02
Sampling
Tooling cost and sample lead time are quoted up front. We photograph and measure the sample before it ships, so you approve what actually exists.
03
Production & inspection
Production is monitored on site. Pre-shipment inspection runs to AQL 2.5 as standard, or to whatever level your buyer specifies.
04
Documents & shipment
Commercial invoice, packing list, test reports and certificate of origin prepared before the container closes. FOB, CIF or DDP.
03 — Documentation
The paperwork is the part that gets checked.
A container that clears customs but fails a retailer's compliance audit is still a loss.
Durable goods and connected devices carry far more paperwork than accessories do — these are
the documents we prepare as a matter of routine, not on request.
- CE marking & technical file
- EMC, LVD and RED for wireless devices; technical file and EU declaration of conformity
- Battery & transport documents
- UN38.3 test summary, MSDS and battery-compliant cartoning for connected devices
- Chemical compliance
- REACH / SVHC declarations, RoHS, formaldehyde and azo limits on wood and textiles
- GPSR & EU responsible person
- Responsible-person arrangement and traceability labelling under Regulation (EU) 2023/988
- EPR registration support
- WEEE and packaging EPR registration in your target markets, or through your importer
- Inspection & testing
- AQL 2.5 pre-shipment inspection, drop and load testing, third-party lab reports
- Export documentation
- Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, EUR.1 where applicable
04 — Why an office in Henan
Three reasons this matters more than a website.
Close enough to show up
Our factories are within a day's drive. When a decision has to be made on the factory floor, we go and stand on it rather than ask for another set of photos.
We say no before you spend money
A share of the specifications we receive is not a good fit for the factories we actually work with. We say so in the first reply, before you pay for a sample.
One contact, overlapping hours
One person answers your emails, in English or German. We hold 15:00–23:00 Beijing time open, which is the whole European working day.
05 — How we are paid
Three things you pay for. Nothing else.
Every engagement is quoted in writing before work starts, so you know the full cost of the
service before you commit to a factory. Nothing is added to an invoice that was not agreed
beforehand.
