1. Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom metal cans?
A: Our standard MOQ is 3,000 units for custom designs, optimized for cost-efficiency while maintaining precision. For bulk orders exceeding 50,000 units, we offer 10% volume discounts and priority scheduling. This flexibility ensures scalability for both startups and large enterprises.
2. Q: How long does production take from design approval to delivery?
A: Typical lead time is 15-25 working days, streamlined by our 30-year continuous stamping technology (±0.01mm tolerance control). Urgent orders can be expedited to 10 days via VIP production lines. Real-time tracking is available through our digital workflow system.
3. Q: Do your cans meet international corrosion resistance standards for chemicals?
A: Yes. Our triple-layer protection system (304 stainless steel + nano-ceramic coating + PE anti-static layer) exceeds ASTM B117 1,200-hour salt spray testing. Certified for UN 31A/Y1.8 hazardous material storage and FDA food-grade compliance.
4. Q: Can you handle complex logo printing on cans?
A: We support 6-color offset printing and embossing/debossing effects with ≤0.1mm precision. Provide vector files (AI/EPS) at 300+ DPI, and our design team will optimize artwork for metal substrates.

5. Q: How do you ensure quality control during production?
A: Our 5-stage QC process includes:
X-ray material inspection
3MPa hydraulic pressure testing
Helium leak detection (<1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s)
ISTA 3A transport simulation
Third-party SGS sampling
6. Q: What logistics options do you provide for international clients?
A: We offer DDP shipping with RFID-tracked containers, covering customs clearance in 15+ Asia-Pacific countries. Temperature/humidity sensors ensure ideal conditions for paint/chemical shipments.
7. Q: Are your production processes eco-friendly?
A: Our GreenCycle™ system achieves 95% recycled steel usage and 18% lower CO2 emissions per 10k units. Certified by EcoVadis Platinum and ISO 14001, with bio-based coatings replacing traditional PVF.

9. Q: How does your 30-year expertise benefit my project?
A: Leveraging patents like CN108687253B (ultra-thin can stamping), we resolve industry pain points:
Reduce material waste by 25% via AI nesting algorithms
Prevent leakage with military-grade seam welding
Cut logistics costs via SmartCube™ stacking systems
10. Q: What payment terms do you accept?
A: Standard terms: 30% deposit, 70% before shipment. We support TT, LC, and Alibaba Trade Assurance. Annual framework contracts qualify for raw material price locking.
