1. EU SUP Directive Interpretation & EU Market Access Data: Say Goodbye to Clearance Risks
The full implementation of the EU SUP Directive means that European customs have "zero tolerance" for any products containing hidden resin coatings or borderline plastics. Furthermore, the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) has shifted heavy traceability and burden-of-proof responsibilities onto European importers.
We solve these complex compliance tasks for you in advance. Our products are absolutely free of plastic polymers, and we provide comprehensive underlying data support to help you smoothly navigate any customs inspections and downstream retailer audits:

2. Premium Raw Materials & Chinese Lean Manufacturing: Building Your Competitive Barrier
By combining European timber with our automated facilities in China, we offer a direct and stable supply chain for importers.
- European Birch Wood: We source FSC®-certified birch from high-latitude European forests. The wood is naturally tough, light-colored, and odorless, establishing a consistent baseline for quality.
- Chemical-Free Processing & Tumbling: Products are shaped through precision mold stamping and hot pressing-an entirely physical process with zero chemical additives. Afterwards, extended tumbling removes any burrs, leaving the edges smooth, splinter-free, and safe for food contact.
- 200 Million Monthly Capacity: Our automated lines produce 200 million units a month. This scale allows us to manage multi-container orders and maintain on-time delivery, even during peak retail seasons.
To meet the strict compliance and audit standards of European wholesale buyers and volume importers, our factory operates under the following international certifications:
[Factory System Certifications & Social Responsibility Audits Overview]
| Audit / Certification Project | Coverage Scope & Compliance Rating |
BRCGS Packaging (Global Standard for Packaging Materials) | Achieved Grade B Certification. Fully covers the entire process of hot pressing, sorting, and packing for food contact materials, including disposable wooden cutlery and coffee stirrers. |
amfori BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) | Successfully passed the comprehensive audit. Fully complies with stringent European social responsibility procurement standards in terms of labor protection, occupational health and safety (including workshop noise reduction and standard PPE configuration), and business ethics. |
| ISO 9001 Quality Management | Strictly adheres to AQL 1.5/4.0 inspection standards and provides transparent Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI) reports before container loading. |
