China remains the world’s workshop for plastic goods. From storage boxes and kitchenware to industrial trays, caps, fittings and packaging, “other” plastic products fill containers to ports across Africa, the Middle East and Europe.

This guide explains how to export Other Plastic Products from China efficiently and how Wigmore Trading can support you at every step.

Why businesses export Other Plastic Products from China

Plastic products are high-volume, repeat-purchase items for wholesalers, retailers and manufacturers. Sourcing from China offers several advantages:

• Competitive pricing: Large-scale production and mature supply chains keep unit costs low.
• Wide product range: Household items, food containers, pallets, crates, cosmetic packaging, closures and fittings are all available.
• Flexible, custom orders: Many manufacturers can handle everything from small trial orders to full-container loads, with colours, branding and packaging tailored to your market.

When you export Other Plastic Products from China with a reliable partner, you can expand your range, protect margins and react quickly to customer demand.

Key categories of “other” plastic products

“Other Plastic Products” is a broad group that typically includes:

• Household and kitchen plastics (bowls, plates, storage boxes, laundry baskets)
• Food-grade containers and lids
• Industrial crates, pallets and trays
• Construction fittings and accessories
• Garden and outdoor items

Each category has different quality, safety and labelling requirements. Working with an experienced trading partner helps you match the right factories to your specific needs.

Challenges when you export Other Plastic Products from China

• Quality consistency: Samples may look perfect, but bulk production can vary without proper controls.
• Compliance and safety: Food-contact plastics, toys and children’s products must meet strict standards in many markets.
• MOQ and pricing: Factories often set minimum order quantities that may not fit new or niche lines.
• Logistics and damage risk: Bulky plastic items can waste container space or arrive damaged if not packed correctly.
• Communication barriers: Misunderstandings on specifications, colours or packaging can lead to costly mistakes and delays.

A partner who understands both the Chinese manufacturing environment and your destination market can dramatically reduce these risks.
