Private Label Drinkware, Done Properly

Three separate things that buyers often bundle together in their heads. Your logo on the product is decoration — silk screen, laser, UV or heat transfer — and it sits in the unit price. Your colour is a spray or resin run, which carries its own minimum because we mix and purge for your batch. Your packaging is a third line: printed colour box, insert, hang tag, barcode. Each has its own cost and its own lead time, and quoting them separately is how you find out where your budget is actually going.

No, and you should not send them yet. We sign an NDA before you share designs and we would rather do that first. If you only want to know whether a shape is feasible and roughly what it costs, a photograph or a rough sketch is enough to start the conversation.

Yes, with tooling. A dedicated mould starts around US$2,000–3,000 per part and adds roughly 60 days before production can begin. Worth doing when the shape is genuinely your differentiator and you are committing to volume. Not worth doing when your launch date is fixed and an existing body would carry your brand perfectly well — most brand owners are better served putting that money and those 60 days into decoration and packaging instead.

Approve a physical sample and let that sample be the reference for every subsequent run. We keep it on file alongside your Pantone. Colour drift between batches is the most common complaint on repeat private-label programmes, and it is almost entirely avoidable this way.

No. A design you tool for is yours and the mould stays reserved to you. Where we are careful is the opposite direction: if you send us a shape that is clearly another brand’s proprietary design, we will tell you rather than build it.
