Factory & Cooperation FAQ
Questions Partners Ask Before They Commit
Factory audits, capacity, certifications, tenders and the cooperation process — the due-diligence answers importers, distributors and project contractors need. For product and pricing questions see our wholesale FAQ.
Are you a factory or a trading company?+
We are the factory. Mingren Rubber has manufactured recycled rubber flooring at our own plant in Weixian, Handan since 2002 — 45 staff, 2 production lines and 90,000㎡ of monthly output, with no trading company in between. Production photos, loading videos and factory-audit materials are openly published on this site.
Can we audit your factory before ordering?+
Yes — we encourage it. Start with our online factory-audit page (production lines, lab testing, loading records), then book a video call for a live walkthrough. Onsite visits are welcome; we are 4 hours from Beijing by high-speed rail and assist with the invitation letter for your visa.
What is your production capacity and lead time?+
Monthly capacity is 90,000㎡ across two lines. Stocked colors ship in 7–15 days after deposit; custom EPDM fleck colors take 15–25 days including your sample approval. A 20GP container loads roughly 800–1,100㎡ depending on thickness.
Which markets do you export to?+
We currently export to 18+ countries, with the largest volumes to Vietnam, the United States, South Korea and Thailand, plus growing shipments to the Middle East and Europe. We are familiar with each market’s import documentation, labeling and common test requirements (ASTM, EN, KS, TCVN-related requests).
What certifications does the factory hold?+
ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001 management systems; SGS test reports covering flammability, wear and impact absorption (GB 36246-2018 safety panel, report series GT250048); non-toxic & non-irritating certification from the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine; and 26 national invention patents in rubber recycling.
Do you support government and gym-chain tenders?+
Yes. We deliver a full tender document pack: business license, ISO certificates, SGS test reports, production capability statement, reference project lists and authorization letters. Our export team has supported municipal, school-district and senior-care flooring tenders in multiple countries.
Do you work with importers, distributors or end projects?+
All three. Standard terms are FOB Tianjin with a 500㎡ MOQ, mixed-SKU container loading for distributors testing multiple product lines, OEM private label from 500㎡, and CIF/DDP quotes for major ports. Product-level questions (thickness, pricing per m², samples) are answered in our wholesale FAQ on rubberflooringchina.com.
How does cooperation start, step by step?+
① Send your inquiry with area, thickness and destination port — we reply with an FOB quote within 24 hours. ② Free A4 samples (courier on your account, refunded against first order). ③ Proforma invoice, 30% TT deposit. ④ Production with in-line QC photos. ⑤ Pre-shipment inspection and loading video. ⑥ Balance against B/L copy.
