Production Process

Pre-Production Preparation & Compliance Pre-Audit

1. Order Confirmation & Requirement Review

Sign a formal foreign trade contract with the customer, clarifying product specifications, quantity, fragrance requirements, packaging design, delivery date, payment terms and target market.

Hold a cross-departmental review meeting to evaluate production feasibility, capacity matching and special requirements of the target market.

Confirm brand authorization documents, trademark registration certificates and packaging design copyrights from OEM/ODM customers.

 

2. Formula Development & International Compliance Pre-Audit (Core Stage)

R&D department prepares fragrance base samples according to customer requirements, providing 3-5 alternative options.

Compliance department screens prohibited/restricted ingredients against EU REACH, US FDA, Canada Hotlist, Australia NICNAS and other standards.

Confirm all ingredients have INCI names and Safety Data Sheets (SDS), with restricted ingredient contents strictly complying with regulatory requirements.

After customer confirmation and signature on samples, finalize the formula and establish formula files.

 

3. Raw Material Procurement & Incoming Inspection

Procure raw materials from ISO 9001 certified international suppliers, prioritizing those compliant with EU ECOCERT and US USDA standards.

All incoming raw materials must be accompanied by COA (Certificate of Analysis), MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) and certificate of origin.

Quality inspection department conducts sensory and physical-chemical inspections according to AQL sampling standards.

Unqualified raw materials are returned directly; qualified materials are stored in warehouse with traceability records established.Production Preparation

1. Production Planning & Material Preparation

Production department formulates detailed production plan according to order delivery date, clarifying time nodes for each process.

Warehouse issues raw materials, packaging materials and auxiliary materials according to BOM (Bill of Materials).

Conduct appearance inspection on all packaging materials, focusing on whether label contents comply with target market regulations.

 

 

2. Equipment Cleaning & Disinfection

Thoroughly clean and disinfect production equipment according to GMPC standards.

Wipe product-contact parts of equipment with 75% food-grade alcohol, then rinse with purified water.

Fill in equipment cleaning records, which can be put into use only after confirmation by quality inspectors.

Maintain production workshop temperature at 18-26℃ and relative humidity at 45%-65%.

 

 

3. Trial Production & Confirmation

Conduct small-batch trial production (0.5%-1% of order quantity) before formal mass production.

Quality inspection department conducts comprehensive testing on trial products: fragrance consistency, appearance, pH value, alcohol content, sealing performance.

Send trial samples to customer for final confirmation, and start mass production after signature.

Core Production

1. Alcohol Pretreatment

Dilute food-grade ethanol (above 95%) to the concentration required by the formula (70%-80%).

Stir evenly and let stand for 24 hours, add appropriate deodorant to remove alcohol impurities.

 

2. Fragrance Base Blending & Mixing

Accurately weigh raw materials according to the formula, with error controlled within ±0.1%.

Add raw materials to the blending tank in sequence, stir at 30-50 rpm for 30-60 minutes, with temperature controlled at 20-25℃.

 

3. Precision Filtration

Filter through three-stage filtration system: 5μm → 1μm → 0.45μm microporous membrane.

Control filtration pressure at 0.2-0.3MPa to avoid damaging fragrance molecules.

 

4. Filling & Capping

Automatic filling machine with error controlled within ±1%, equipped with anti-drip design.

Immediately cap automatically after filling to ensure proper torque and prevent leakage.

Spot check filling volume and capping sealing performance every hour.

 

5. Labeling & Coding

Automatic labeling machine applies labels accurately, ensuring flat and bubble-free application.

Print product batch number, production date, shelf life and traceability code.

Inspect labeling and coding quality bottle by bottle, and reject unqualified products.

Finished Product Quality Inspection & Release

1. In-Process Inspection

Quality inspectors conduct patrol inspections on each process every 2 hours and record process parameters.

Focus on checking filling volume, capping sealing performance, labeling/coding quality and fragrance consistency.

 

2. Finished Product Comprehensive Inspection

Sample each batch according to AQL 2.5 standard and conduct the following tests:

Sensory indicators: appearance, color, fragrance, clarity

Physical-chemica indicators: pH value, alcohol content, relative density, cold/heat resistance

Microbiological indicators: compliant with ISO 17516 standard

Sealing test: no leakage after inversion for 24 hours

Sprayer test: smooth operation without clogging after 100 consecutive presses

 

 

3. Issue Quality Report & Release

Issue COA (Certificate of Analysis) after all tests are passed.

If third-party testing is required, send samples to international authoritative institutions such as SGS, Intertek or BV.

Products can be stored in warehouse and released only after signature approval by quality control manager.

Export Packaging & Warehousing

1. Inner Packaging & Middle Box

Place qualified products into inner trays, then into middle boxes.

Affix labels on middle boxes indicating product information, batch number and production date.

 

2. Export Outer Carton Packaging

（UN3082）Reinforce outer cartons with cross strapping, print standard shipping marks and dangerous goods mark (UN3082).

Shipping marks include: consignee information, destination port, product information, gross/net weight, volume, batch number, origin mark (Made in China).

 

3. Finished Product Warehousing

40%-60%Store finished products in a dedicated cool and dry warehouse, with temperature at 15-25℃ and relative humidity at 40%-60%.

Keep away from fire sources, heat sources and direct sunlight; store by batch and implement first-in-first-out principle.

Retain samples of each batch until the end of shelf life for quality traceability.

Export Compliance & Logistics Delivery

1. Export Document Preparation

Prepare full set of export documents:

Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading

Certificate of origin (CO/Form A/Form E, etc.)

Target market certification (CE, REACH, FDA, SASO, Halal, etc.)

Dangerous goods packaging use appraisal certificate

After-sales Service & Order Follow-up

Establish customer files, recording order information and product feedback.

Conduct regular follow-up visits to understand market sales performance.

Timely handle customer complaints and quality issues.

Follow up on subsequent orders and provide continuous technical support.
