Intro
Guangzhou sits at the heart of the Greater Bay Area’s disposable hygiene supply chain. Upstream nonwovens, SAP, and pulp are mature; manufacturing clusters concentrate in Baiyun, Huadu, and Huangpu. The city is close to three major ports—Nansha, Yantian, and Shekou—which streamlines FCL/LCL export. This list focuses only on factories located inside Guangzhou city limits that have real production or OEM/ODM projects.

Map & Logistics (Where They Are vs. Ports)
- Baiyun Cluster (Zhongluotan / Renhe / Taihe): Sanrong, Mingku, AiYin, Jingxing are here. Rough trucking to Nansha Port ≈ 60–80 km; to Yantian ≈ 130–150 km; to Shekou ≈ 110–120 km.
- Huadu: Hengsheng around Xiuxuan—close to airport and expressways; access to Nansha is manageable.
- Huangpu (Knowledge City): P&G plant; convenient access to Nansha/Yellow-Port terminals and cross-border corridors.
Tip: For Guangzhou loading, Nansha is usually the most time-/cost-efficient. Compare Yantian/Shekou when schedules or LCL networks favor Shenzhen.
Sourcing Guide (From Project Kickoff to PSI)
Verifying a Factory
- Licenses & scope: Business license scope should explicitly cover disposable hygiene/diaper manufacturing.
- Third-party audits: Prefer ISO 9001/14001 for systems; social audits (BSCI/SEDEX) when retail channels require it.
- Sampling & AB tests: Run 2–3+ rounds varying core weight, SAP ratio, core design, waist/closure components; log test data.
- AQL Inspection: Pre-shipment by a third party; common baseline General Level II with AQL Major 2.5 / Minor 4.0. Lab performance per GB/T 28004 (diapers)—penetration, rewet, leakage, breathability, tensile, tape fatigue.
How Core & Materials Drive Cost/Performance
- Basis weight (gsm): Higher gsm ⇒ higher absorbency & “fuller” handfeel but higher cost; night use and larger sizes trend heavier.
- SAP ratio: Typical working window ~35–45% (balanced with fluff pulp). Higher SAP improves locking/rewet but can trade off softness & cost.
- Topsheet/Backsheet: Hot-air nonwoven, pearl textures, and breathable films influence comfort, rash risk, and unit cost.
- Key tests: Rewet, side-leak, air permeability, waist/tape strength.
Sampling, MOQ & Lead Time (Typical)
- Sampling: ~7–15 days (longer if custom printed bags/cartons).
- MOQ: FCL strongly preferred (cost/stability).
- Lead time: 15–45 days from artwork & packaging lock; first orders often longer.
Compliance & Labeling (EU/US)
- Usually treated as general consumer goods (not medical devices). Plan for chemical safety (e.g., REACH-related screens, fluorescent whitening agent checks), correct language/marking, and retailer-specific rules (CPSIA/State regs in the US as applicable). Consider skin irritation/sensitization and microbial limits testing for premium SKUs.
Shipping
- FCL: Lower unit logistics cost, fewer touch points, better schedule control.
- LCL: Lower entry quantity but higher unit cost and more handling.
- Port choice: For Guangzhou loading, start with Nansha; evaluate Yantian/Shekou when route rates/sailing frequency or consolidations are better.
FAQ (Buyer Prompts)
- Can you do private label (OEM/ODM)? Any sample/plate fees?
Most Guangzhou factories offer OEM/ODM. Expect die-cut + cylinder/plate + sample fees; often refundable against mass orders per contract. - How do I balance basis weight/SAP with cost and absorbency?
Define target absorbency & rewet limits by user scenario (day/night, NB/L/XL). Run small-scale trials and road tests, then fine-tune gsm and SAP in increments. - Extra compliance/labels for EU/US?
Plan basic chemical screens (e.g., REACH-related, fluorescent-free), correct packaging language and origin/lot/size markings; follow channel/retailer rules. - Can you make fluorescent-free/fragrance-free/hypoallergenic SKUs?
Yes—specify at RFQ. Validate via third-party tests (fluorescent agent, skin irritation patch). - Factory audit and inspection workflow?
Common flow: desk review → on-site audit (BSCI/SEDEX or customer audit) → CAP → trial run → PSI (SGS/BV/ITS) → loading witness (optional). - Ports & FCL/LCL?
For Guangzhou, Nansha typically wins on drayage/time. FCL is cheaper and more reliable; LCL suits small pilots but costs more per unit.
