Pre-Diluted Roll-on

For SEA's humid climate, component selection is critical. We specify pumps with internal mechanisms made from polypropylene (PP) or acetal, which resist moisture absorption and swelling. Spring materials are stainless steel to prevent rust, which is a common failure point that leads to clogging or inconsistent dispensing. The sealing gasket material is also chosen for its resistance to mold and degradation in constant 80%+ RH environments. During sampling, we run salt spray tests on metal components and function-tests units after exposure to high humidity chambers. For production, we implement inline checks on every batch, including a torque test to ensure the actuator hasn't become stiff or stuck due to material expansion. We can support documentation like MSDS for all components and a Declaration of Conformity for the assembled packaging. Lead time for tooling new components is 45-60 days, with a standard MOQ of 10,000 units per component. Final packaging includes silica gel in master cartons to control moisture during ocean freight.

The biggest “hidden” cost is testing scope creep. What starts as basic checks can expand into micro/stability/challenge and claim-support testing depending on positioning and channels. We can help arrange send-out testing and track reports, and we can support the documentation set you’ll need for your supply chain, but we never promise regulatory outcomes. Packaging rework is #2. After the first sample, brands commonly revise artwork, instructions, pricing sheets, or component specs (pump/cap fit, label size, box dielines). Packaging lead times add up: outer cartons are often ~15 working days for a single box, ~20 for a set box; inner packs can be ~15 for glass bottles, ~30 for acrylic, ~15 for tubes/mask pouches. Changing components midstream usually triggers re-order minimums and new proofs. Freight damage is #3. Fragile packs (glass, pumps) can require extra inserts, stronger master cartons, and better palletization. Without planning, you may pay for replacements, rework labor, and expedited shipping. Typical MOQs are 1,000-3,000 units (simple items like masks can start at 1,000; complex skincare sets often 3,000). Production is commonly 10-20 working days once everything is confirmed, while full one-stop brand delivery is often 45-60 days.

At LAEYO Labs, most products start from 1,000-3,000 units. Simple processes can start at 1,000 units, while more complex items (e.g., sets with more packaging steps and formulas) typically start at 3,000. Pricing logic is straightforward: the “fixed” parts of a project (setup, packaging artwork/plates, sampling iterations, and required testing/documentation support) are similar whether you make 1,000 or 3,000, so your per-unit cost drops as volume increases. Timeline also ties to MOQ decisions because packaging and production scheduling are batch-based. Bulk production lead time is usually 10-20 working days after everything is confirmed, while packaging ordering often takes 10-30 working days. Typical internal time blocks include packaging checks (about 3 days), raw material production (5-7 days), raw material testing (5 days), and finished goods production (7 days). Packaging choices affect both MOQ and cost: outer single box is about 15 days, set box 20 days; inner packaging lead times can be glass bottle 15 days, acrylic bottle 30 days, tube 15 days. We can assist with testing coordination and documentation, but we do not guarantee regulatory approval outcomes.

For US body care, the quickest cost wins without hurting perceived quality are mostly “less complexity, more standardization.” Start by removing multi-piece structures (inner trays, extra inserts) and avoiding set/kit-style packaging unless it truly lifts AOV. Next, unify the same bottle/tube and cap across multiple scents/variants, and differentiate with a premium label and consistent color system instead of fully custom containers. If you are currently using acrylic, switching to a simpler primary pack can cut both cost and timeline. Lead time is often driven by packaging. Typical packaging ordering is 10-30 business days; outer packaging is about 15 business days for a single unit box vs 20 business days for a set box. For primary packs, glass bottles and tubes are commonly around 15 business days, while acrylic bottles can take about 30 business days. Bulk production is usually 10-20 business days after samples are confirmed. MOQ is generally 1000-3000 units (simpler items can start at 1000; more complex sets often 3000). We can support sampling, send-out testing, and documentation needs (e.g., barcode/required papers) and coordinate inspection workflows, but we won’t promise approval outcomes.

In most US private label body lotion projects, the biggest unit-cost swing comes from packaging (bottle, pump/cap, label, and outer box). Premium components, multi-piece pumps, or complex decoration typically move cost more than small formula tweaks. Freight then depends heavily on finished-goods volume/weight and whether you ship by air vs sea; tighter pack-out and lighter components usually reduce landed cost. Formula still matters: higher-actives, specialty textures, or more complex stability targets can raise raw material and QC cost. Filling cost is usually more stable, but it increases with difficult viscosities, small fills, or slow changeovers, so choosing a fill-friendly format helps. For planning: MOQ is generally 1000-3000 units depending on complexity. Mass production is often 10-20 working days once formula and packaging are confirmed, while packaging ordering can take 10-30 working days. We can support documentation and third-party testing coordination (e.g., product testing/inspection) and guide packaging selection to balance COGS and a clean Amazon-ready presentation. End-to-end brand launch projects often run about 45-60 days.

At the factory stage, the best FBA outcome starts with pack selection: we recommend an induction seal or high-performance liner, a tamper-evident shrink band, and (for pumps) a lock clip plus a verified cap torque spec. We run compatibility and leakage checks during sampling because viscosity and fill temperature windows can change how easily product creeps past threads or pumps. For FBA prep, we suggest unit-level containment: each item in a sealed, transparent polybag with a suffocation warning (and an absorbent pad for higher-risk oils), with the FNSKU/UPC applied to the sellable unit (not the bag unless required). Case-pack with dividers or snug partitions, keep caps upright, and avoid air gaps; air-freight pressure swings are a common real-world trigger for slow leaks. Operationally, our MOQ for body care is typically 1,000-3,000 pcs (1,000 for simpler SKUs; higher for complex sets/packaging). Plan lead time around packaging ordering 10-30 working days plus bulk production 10-20 working days; packaging testing alone is usually 3 days. We can support documentation like COA, SDS/MSDS, ingredient list/INCI, batch/lot traceability, and arrange stability/micro testing, but we cannot guarantee regulatory acceptance by Amazon or US authorities.

For Amazon US FBA, poly bags generally require a suffocation warning if the bag opening is 5 inches (12.7 cm) or larger. The warning should be in English, easy to read, and clearly visible (printed on the bag or applied as a label). If your bag opening is smaller, a warning is usually not required, but we still recommend checking the latest FBA packaging policy for your exact ASIN and prep type. On the OEM/ODM side, we can support end-to-end packaging coordination: bag size selection, warning placement, and overall brand packaging/VI design. For a one-stop brand build, our typical production delivery workflow targets 45-60 days; mass production lead time is often 10-20 working days, while packaging ordering can take 10-30 working days (e.g., glass bottle 15 days, acrylic bottle 30 days, tube 15 days). MOQ depends on whether you use an existing base formula and standard packaging versus fully customized formula and new packaging tooling. We can provide formula customization and sampling, assist with product testing and documentation (inspection submission and report tracking), plus barcode and logistics support.

For Amazon FBA, the most effective leakage-reduction specs are: (1) induction seal on every bottle (foil seal matched to PET/HDPE or glass), (2) closure with a PE foam liner or EPE gasket, (3) tamper-evident shrink band, and (4) cap/pump lock (disc-top or lockable pump for body wash; tight screw cap for body oil). Set and verify application torque and re-torque after 24 hours; leave controlled headspace to avoid pressure weeping during transit. On the pack-out side, we recommend individual unit polybagging for liquids (with appropriate warning), plus a snug inner fit (carton insert or bubble sleeve) to prevent cap side-load. Avoid acrylic unless you need the look; it typically adds lead time and can crack under impact. Operationally, our MOQ is typically 1,000-3,000 units depending on packaging and formula complexity (kits are usually higher). After sample confirmation, mass production is commonly 10-20 working days, while packaging ordering can take 10-30 working days (e.g., glass bottles ~15 days; acrylic up to ~30 days). We can support documentation and arrange product send-out testing/report tracking; we also provide barcode and packaging design support.
