Category description
How CoExpys handles Ceramic Tableware
We supply porcelain and stoneware tableware from Guangdong and Fujian factories for houseware retailers, restaurants and hotel supply. Two requirements decide whether a tableware shipment clears: the glaze must meet the food-contact limits for lead and cadmium migration, and the packed pieces must survive a sea voyage without chipping. We test the glaze on a production sample and pack each piece individually with foam dividers in export cartons, then open random cartons at inspection to check for chips, cracks and glaze crazing before the container is sealed.
Every shipment is quoted against a confirmed specification, packed to the format agreed for your channel, and documented so the Cuban side can clear it without guesswork.
