Changde, Hunan, China – September <\/strong>28<\/strong>, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

A delegation from a Japanese wellness brand visited Hunan Pinliu Biotechnology’s headquarters in Changde, Hunan this week to evaluate the company as an OEM\/ODM partner for custom steam eye masks. The one-day visit covered the corporate showroom, the enterprise patent wall, hands-on product evaluation, and a working session on private-label specifications — a milestone in Pinliu’s continued expansion into East Asia’s most quality-demanding market.<\/p>\n

1. The showroom tour: a decade of self-heating expertise<\/p>\n

The visit began in Pinliu’s corporate showroom, where the delegation followed the company’s development from its founding in 2015 to today’s dual-base manufacturing platform. The tour traced the evolution of Pinliu’s self-heating product lines — from the flagship steam eye mask series<\/a> to warming patches<\/a>, moxibustion patches<\/a>, and eye-care products<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The delegation paid close attention to the enterprise qualification wall, which displays the company’s 23 patents — including invention patents for temperature-controlled steam eye masks and self-heating herbal warming products — alongside certifications<\/a> such as ISO 9001, ISO 13485, FDA, BSCI and RoHS. For a buyer preparing to launch in the Japanese market, documented intellectual property and third-party audits carry particular weight: Japanese retail partners routinely require this level of supply-chain transparency before onboarding a new manufacturer.<\/p>\n

From the showroom, the visit moved to product evaluation. Pinliu’s product team presented sample units from the steam eye mask platform — including the C-type contoured design, fragrance variants, and temperature-curve options — and walked the delegation through the structural details that differentiate the products: heating-layer formulation, skin-contact materials, and ear-loop or contour-fit ergonomics.<\/p>\n

The Japanese guests examined the samples in detail, asking questions that reflected the standards of their home market: heat-up timing, peak temperature stability across a production batch, steam duration, and material breathability. Pinliu’s team answered with batch-level test data, including temperature-curve records from the company’s in-house testing process.<\/p>\n

The day concluded with a closed-door working session between both teams. The discussion centered on the delegation’s core requirement: a custom steam eye mask tailored for the Japanese market, covering:<\/p>\n

Heating profile:target temperature range and duration, tuned to Japanese consumer expectations for gentle, consistent warmth.<\/p>\n

Fragrance:scent options consistent with the Japanese wellness aesthetic, alongside fragrance-free variants.<\/p>\n

Shape and materials:contoured fit options and skin-contact fabrics that meet Japan’s stringent skin-safety expectations.<\/p>\n

Private-label packaging:retail-ready design, Japanese-language labeling support, and export documentation.<\/p>\n

Both sides agreed to move into the sample and specification stage with technical documentation. The delegation departed with a clear picture of Pinliu’s production scale: a 50,000 m² smart manufacturing base in Changde, a 7,000 m² Guangzhou facility, and a daily output exceeding 5 million pieces.<\/p>\n

Japan is one of the most mature steam eye mask markets in the world, with consumers who expect precise temperature control, reliable safety, and refined packaging. Earning a custom-manufacturing mandate from a Japanese brand is therefore one of the strongest validations a wellness OEM\/ODM factory can receive — it signals that the factory’s quality system has passed one of the industry’s most demanding filters.<\/p>\n

For Pinliu, the visit extends a pattern of international brand partnerships built on on-site verification: buyers walk the lines, review the data, and then commit.<\/p>\n

5. What happens next<\/p>\n

Following the visit, both teams will move through the standard OEM\/ODM onboarding sequence: sample submission with technical specification sheets, client-side evaluation, specification lock, and trial production. Pinliu’s export team will support the delegation with regulatory documentation, including MSDS and material safety data required for import into Japan.<\/p>\n

Brands interested in visiting the Changde facility or requesting custom steam eye mask samples can contact Pinliu’s international sales team directly.<\/p>\n

6. Meet Pinliu at the 140th Canton Fair<\/p>\n

International buyers will have the next opportunity to meet Pinliu in person at the 140th Canton Fair, taking place October 31 – November 4, 2026 in Guangzhou, China. The Pinliu team will present its full wellness portfolio – steam eye masks, warming patches, moxibustion patches, and new products including the burst-bead warm neck patch – with live demonstrations and OEM\/ODM consultations on site.<\/p>\n

Visitors are welcome to schedule an appointment in advance through Pinliu’s international sales team to ensure dedicated time with the company’s product specialists.<\/p>\n
