01About POSIcasa关于公司

Are you a factory or a trading company?

We are an integrated manufacturer and exporter in Foshan, Guangdong, China. We run our own 53,000 m² factory campus (4 workshops on one site) and a 6,000 m² showroom, with a 300-person product and production team. Our own plant takes the main load; in peak season we use vetted partner capacity locally, and every unit is inspected by our own QC team before shipment.

我们是佛山工贸一体的制造出口商:自有 53,000㎡ 厂区(单一厂区、区内 4 栋车间)+ 6,000㎡ 展厅,300 人产研团队。自有厂承担主力生产,旺季启用经审核的本地配套产能;每件成品出货前都由我们自己的 QC 团队统一验收。

How long have you been in the furniture business?

Company established 2013 · 13+ years of manufacturing experience. Since then we've grown to 4,000+ SKUs, 500+ verified buyer reviews on our Alibaba store, and delivered boutique homestay and hotel projects in Dubai.

中文参考

Company established 2013 · 13+ years of manufacturing experience(两者必须同句)。目前 4,000+ SKU、国际站 500+ 已验证买家评价、迪拜多个精品民宿与酒店项目交付记录。

Can I visit your factory?

Any time — no special scheduling. We'll show you the campus property title, the environmental approval and the fire-safety acceptance. One address covers our entire capacity: No. 13, Xiangang Northeast Industrial Zone, Xiqiao, Nanhai, Foshan (also known as Qiaoxing Industrial Zone).

中文参考

随时欢迎,不需要特别排期。可出示厂区产权证明、环评、消防验收。一个地址看完全部产能:佛山市南海区西樵镇显岗东北工业区第 13 号(对外也称“樵星工业区”)。

Why do I see more than one company name in your documents?

The names you may see across our documents are all related legal entities within the same POSIcasa group in Foshan.

中文参考

您在不同文件上看到的几个公司名,都是佛山 POSIcasa 集团内的关联主体(口径纪律:一句话带过,不展开、不出示多余执照)。

How do you control quality?

We run an internationally recognised quality management system, and every unit is inspected by our own QC team before shipment — including every outsourced batch, which must come back into our plant for the same acceptance check. If a non-manual quality defect ever occurs, we replace first and sort out liability afterwards.

中文参考

我们执行国际认可的质量管理体系;每件成品(含外协件)出货前都回本厂由自有 QC 统一验收——工序可以外发,验收权不外发。非人为质量问题:先补发、后定责,不让您先举证先垫钱。

Which markets do you ship to?

Our main export markets are the Middle East, North America and Southeast Asia, with shipments to Europe as well. Tell us your destination and we'll line up that market's entry requirements item by item.

中文参考

主要出口市场:中东、北美、东南亚,亦有发往欧洲。告知目的国,我们按该市场准入要求逐项对齐(如欧盟 CE、海湾 GCC)。

02Products & Materials产品与材质

What products do you make?

Twelve categories in three groups — LIVING ROOM: solid wood sofa, coffee table, TV cabinet, side table, sofa bed, lounge chair; DINING ROOM: dining table, oval dining table, dining chair, sideboard; BEDROOM & ENTRY: nightstand, console cabinet. 4,000+ SKUs in total — a whole living or dining room can come from one order.

中文参考

3 组 12 品类(对外命名逐字):客厅 6 类(实木沙发/茶几/电视柜/边几/沙发床/休闲椅)、餐厅 4 类(餐桌/椭圆餐桌/餐椅/餐边柜)、卧室&玄关 2 类(床头柜/玄关柜)。共 4,000+ SKU,一整套客餐厅可一单配齐。

What materials and finishes do you use?

We build primarily in solid-wood-and-panel construction: solid wood in load-bearing and contact surfaces, MDF panels in large tops and carcasses to control thermal movement and cracking. Finishes follow the model — wood veneer, lacquer, marble, sintered stone, glass or leather — and we state the finish with every quote. All-solid-wood versions are available on request, quoted separately.

中文参考

主做板木结合:实木用于承重结构与接触面,MDF 大面板控制热胀冷缩与开裂率。表面处理按款而定(木饰面/烤漆/大理石/岩板/玻璃/皮革),报价时一并写明。全实木可做,单独报价(成本与变形风险会上浮,提前说明)。

What styles do you cover?

From modern minimal through mid-century solid wood. The fastest way to match: send us 2–3 reference images and we'll tell you which models are closest and where yours will differ. We do original design inspired by reference styles — we don't copy other brands.

中文参考

覆盖现代简约到中古实木这一线。最快方式:发 2–3 张参考图,我们直接说哪几款最接近、哪里会不一样。按参考风格原创设计,不做仿牌——这条守得很死。

Can I get product photos, 3D renders or model files?

Yes, at no charge: real-shot photos plus 3D renders and 3D model files. Real shots show the genuine texture; the 3D renders are yours to use in your own marketing — clean background, swappable scenes. You can sell the look before production even starts.

中文参考

有,且免费:实拍图 + 3D 渲染图 + 3D 模型文件。实拍给客户看真实质感,3D 渲染图用于您自己的宣传物料(背景干净、可换场景)——先拿着效果图卖、确认了再下单生产。

Can I mix different rooms or product lines in one order?

Yes — and we encourage it. One order, volume spread across several lines or models: same production run, one shipment, consistent batch colour, and one freight bill instead of several. Mixed-container loading is planned by our team, because container efficiency is what keeps your freight down.

中文参考

可以,而且我们鼓励混款混柜:一次下单、量分散到多个款,同批生产、同批出货、同批色差,还省一次物流。装柜方案由我们排——装柜效率直接决定运费。

03Customisation — ODM / OEM定制与改款

Can I customise the size, colour or finish?

Yes — customisation is our core strength (ODM from your drawing; OEM welcome). A size step on an existing model, or a colour/finish change, usually sits inside our existing process, so the cost impact is small and the lead time stays short. Send the target size or a colour card and we'll quote it.

中文参考

可以——定制是我们的主打能力(ODM 按图改款,OEM 也欢迎)。现有款调尺寸档、换颜色/饰面,通常落在现有工艺范围内,成本影响最小、交期短。给目标尺寸或色卡,我们报价。

Can you produce from my drawing, photo or sample?

All three work. The flow: you send the drawing or sample → we check it against our process (and tell you up front what's achievable and what needs adjusting) → we quote, sampling costs itemised → you confirm → we sample → you approve → production.

中文参考

图纸、样品、一张清晰照片都可以。流程:您提供图纸/样品 → 我们核工艺(提前说清哪些做得到、哪些要改,不等打完样才说)→ 报价(打样费单列)→ 您确认 → 打样 → 您确认样品 → 量产。

What does customisation cost?

You're not paying a "customisation fee" — you're covering real one-off costs: material preparation, jigs, a sample, a line changeover. Small batches therefore carry a higher unit price, and your quote shows both tiers so you can see where the price bends. The one-off cost is not charged again on reorders.

中文参考

加的不是“改款费”,而是一次性投入的真实成本:备料、夹具、打样、排产切换。所以小批量改款单价略高,报价会把两个梯度都列出来,让您看到拐点在哪。一次性投入返单时不再重复收。

How long does a custom sample take?

A sample adds one sampling round on top of the standard production bands — regular 30 days / rush 15 / peak season 45. We give you the specific days by model rather than a blanket promise.

中文参考

改款 = 标准区间(常规 30 天 / 加急 15 / 旺季 45)之上多一轮打样;具体天数按款报,不笼统承诺。

Can I have my own brand on the furniture?

Yes — OEM is welcome. Brand colour, fabric, logo and tabletop dimensions can all be handled. OEM work carries a development fee and its own minimum, which we quote together with the sample so there are no surprises later.

中文参考

可以(OEM 欢迎):品牌色、面料、LOGO、桌面尺寸均可定制。OEM 报价含开发费与起订量门槛(走同一入口,单独报价),无后续意外。

04Ordering, Price & Payment下单、价格与付款

Are the prices shown on your website real?

Yes. The price shown is the lowest wholesale price for that model — normally the largest quantity tier or a base configuration. Your spec, quantity and colour will change the number, so our first reply always carries the real price for the exact configuration you asked about. Not a bait price — a display field can only hold one figure.

中文参考

是。页面价格是款号的最低批发价(通常对应最大数量档或基础配置);您的规格/数量/颜色不同,价格就不同。首条回复直接给“您问的这个配置”的实价——不是坐地起价,显示位只能放一个数。

What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

MOQ varies by model and is detailed in each quote — some models start at just 5 pieces. The difference is material preparation and changeover cost, not an arbitrary wall. Tell us your market and your planned first-order volume, and we'll match the models that actually start at your volume.

中文参考

MOQ 按型号定、以报价单为准——部分型号 5 件起订。差别在备料与排产切换成本,不是摆门槛。告诉我们目标市场和首批想上的量,我们匹配“这个量能起订的型号”,不让您在起订量上反复碰壁。

Can I start with a small trial order?

Yes. Around 5 pieces is the entry point for many models — our smallest trial order. A common tactic: hit the minimum once, spread it across 2–3 models, and test several designs with the same money. One or two pieces for quality verification goes through our sampling process instead.

中文参考

可以。5 件起是不少型号的正式起订点,也就是最小的“试单量”。常见做法:混款凑单——5 件分到 2–3 个款,同样的钱多测一倍的方向。1–2 件确认品质走样品流程。

What are your sample charges?

Sample pricing is 2× the unit price for existing customers and 3× for new customers, refundable once your order is placed (handled per contract). Sample freight is on the buyer. A sample built from your drawing or a new model carries one-off costs, itemised separately in the quote.

中文参考

样品费:老客户 2 倍、新客户 3 倍,正式下单后可退(按合同条款处理);运费一律由您承担。按图纸/新款打样含一次性投入,报价时单独列明。

Which trade terms do you work with?

Our quotes default to EXW — our factory-gate base price, the cleanest figure for comparing offers. FOB, CIF or DDP are available on request for larger orders or door-to-door needs; when we switch terms we spell out exactly what each extra covers (inland freight, export clearance, ocean freight). Every quote states its trade term in writing — line offers up on the same term, and the comparison becomes meaningful.

中文参考

报价默认 EXW(出厂底价,最干净的比价基准);FOB / CIF / DDP 大单或包到门需求时按单执行,换条款时写清多出部分各含什么(内陆运费、报关、海运)。每份报价单书面标明条款——先统一条款,再比价。

What payment terms do you accept?

The standard is 100% deposit before shipment. On larger orders we can discuss 25% deposit / 75% balance, or 50/50. Payments through Alibaba Trade Assurance are also available. We don't offer post-shipment credit terms at this stage — if cash flow is the constraint, we'd rather work on staged shipments with staged payments, which keeps risk small on both sides.

中文参考

标准:100% 定金、发货前付清。大额订单可谈 25/75 或 50/50。支持阿里信保成交。现阶段不做出货后账期(OA/30-60-90 天);若资金周转是问题,我们更倾向“分批出货+分批付款”,两边风险都小。

Is there room to negotiate the price?

Where we can move and where we can't — said plainly. We move on: volume tiers, concentrating quantity on fewer models, one consolidated order, and repeat business. We don't move on: packaging (wooden crating is standard for furniture — cutting it raises your damage rate), material, or QC. Give us your target price and quantity and we'll rebuild the offer on the levers that exist. If it's genuinely impossible, we'll say so.

中文参考

能降的和不能降的,直接说:能降——数量上台阶、款式集中、一次配齐、返单;降不动——包装(木架是标配,省了就是破损率上升)、材质(换料就是换质量)、QC。把目标价和数量给我们,按能降的项重配一版;真做不到会直接说做不到。

05Lead Time & Production交期与产能

What is your production lead time?

Counted from the day the deposit is received: regular 30 days; rush 15 days where the schedule allows; peak season 45 days. Your quote carries the specific lead time for that model — our rule is to quote a time we can hold, not one that merely sounds good. If peak season pushes it up, we tell you in advance.

中文参考

自定金到账起算:常规 30 天;加急 15 天(以排产有空档为准);旺季 45 天。报价时给这一款的具体交期——原则是报一个能守住的时间,不报听着漂亮的。旺季若上浮,提前告知。

How long until delivery to my door?

Door-to-door is three legs: production + ocean transit + destination clearance and delivery. We quote all three separately rather than one vague total. The ocean leg depends on your port and the sailing schedule; clearance and final delivery vary a lot by country, so we won't promise days on a forwarder's behalf — but we'll tell you which leg is most likely to slip and what to watch.

中文参考

到门时间 = 生产 + 海运 + 目的港清关与派送,三段分开给,不合成一个模棱两可的总数。海运段按目的港与船期定(报价时连船期一起给);清关派送受目的国影响大,不替货代承诺天数,但会告诉您哪段最容易出意外、该盯什么。

Can you rush my order?

Yes, but it depends on a real gap in the production schedule, not on willingness. Give us the confirmed model and quantity and we'll check the line before answering — "yes, this time" or "not this time; the earliest is X." We won't say yes first and figure it out later.

中文参考

可以,但看排产有没有真实空档,不看态度。给确认的型号与数量,我们查完产线再答复:“这次可以”或“这次不行、最早是 X”——不会先答应再想办法。

How do you handle peak-season capacity?

It gets tight in peak season — that's true across the industry. Our answer: our own plant carries the main load, and we bring in vetted local partner capacity in Foshan; every outsourced batch comes back into our plant for our own QC before it ships. And the one move that actually works: lock your slot early — confirm model and quantity sooner, and we hold the position.

中文参考

旺季紧张是行业共性,我们不回避。我们的应对:自有厂区主力生产+旺季启用佛山本地经审核的配套产能,外发件回本厂由自有 QC 统一验收。对您最实际的一条:旺季提前锁定档期——型号与数量早确认,我们给您留位。

Do you keep stock?

Some standard models are held as stock or semi-finished material and ship faster; non-standard models are made to order. Fast-wearing hardware is held in long-term stock, so a replacement part never has to wait on a new production cycle.

中文参考

部分常规款有备货或半成品备料,出货更快;非常规款按单生产。易损五金长期备货——补件不用等一个新生产周期。

06Shipping, Packing & After-Sales物流、包装与售后

How is shipping cost calculated?

Furniture freight runs on volume (CBM), not weight. Our order of operations: confirm volume → FCL or LCL → destination port or door — and we supply the volume step ourselves, because packing data (boxes, carton dimensions, gross weight, CBM) is recorded for every model. For scale: our 180 cm butterfly-leg dining table takes ≈0.85 CBM per set — about 200 sets in a 40HQ.

中文参考

家具运费按体积(CBM)算,不按重量。顺序:先确认体积 → 整柜/拼箱 → 目的港/门点;体积这一步我们主动给(包装参数逐型号记录),很多供应商给不出。参照:180cm 蝶形腿餐桌 ≈0.85 CBM/套,40HQ 约 200 套。

FCL or LCL — which should I choose?

Both are supported, and we'll tell you honestly which is better. FCL: lower unit freight, fewer handlings, less damage risk, steadier timing — it just needs the volume. LCL: workable at small volume, but one extra handling, and your transit depends on other cargo in the box. If you're near the tipping point we'll say it plainly: "X more pieces gets you a full container and saves Y."

中文参考

两种都支持,而且我们如实告诉您哪个更划算:整柜——单位运费低、装卸少、破损风险小、时效稳,但要凑量;拼箱——量小可行,但多一次装卸、时效受同柜其他货影响。量在临界点上,我们直接算账:“再加 X 件走整柜,省 Y”。

How is the furniture packed?

Standard packing is wooden crating plus carton — furniture needs crating; a quote without it looks cheaper, but the damage rate is where the real cost lands. Panels, hardware and fragile parts are packed separately, and marble tops get additional bracing. Furniture ships either KD (flat-pack) or fully assembled — confirmed with you before the order.

中文参考

标准包装:木架+纸箱/袋。家具必须打木架——不打木架的报价看着便宜,破损率上去了才是真贵。板件、五金、易碎件分开包装,大理石台面另有加固。出货形态 KD(拆装)或整装,下单前与您确认。

Can you ship door-to-door (DDP)?

Yes, DDP can be arranged — with one rule: duties and clearance responsibility are written down in advance. We break freight + duty + clearance out as three separate lines rather than an "all-in" figure, because vague all-in promises end up as disputes. We ship from Foshan, Guangdong — our production base, so it ships from the factory, not a warehouse elsewhere. Common FOB ports are Shenzhen and Guangzhou; others on request.

中文参考

DDP 可以安排,但税费与清关责任必须提前写进合同——“运费+税费+清关”三项拆开列,不做“包到门不另收费”的含糊承诺(这类含糊最后都变成争议)。发货地广东佛山(生产基地,工厂直发,不是异地拼货);常见 FOB 港深圳/广州,其他按要求安排。

What warranty do you provide?

A 10-year written structural warranty — frames, load-bearing parts and connectors — stated in the contract, not a verbal line. Surface wear, man-made damage and abnormal use are outside it; stating that now is how we avoid arguing later. For non-manual quality issues we replace first and sort out liability afterwards, and fast-wearing hardware is in long-term stock, so spares move quickly.

中文参考

结构件 10 年书面质保(框架、受力部件、连接件),写在合同里,不是口头承诺。外观磨损、人为损坏、非正常使用不在范围内——提前讲明,以后不吵。非人为质量问题先补发后定责;易损五金长期备货,补件快。

What standing commitments come with every order?

Three written commitments travel with every wholesale order — not chat lines. Half-year free storage at our campus before your shipping window, so you can lock production without rushing freight. A half-price buy-back path if an order has to be unwound. And delay compensation if we miss a production window we committed to. All three are stated in the contract so both sides can check them.

中文参考

每笔批发订单附带三项书面承诺(不是聊天口头):出货窗口前最长半年免费仓储(先锁产不赶船期);订单需解除时的半价回购路径;我们错过合同约定交期窗口时的逾期补偿。三项都写进合同,双方可核对。

What if items arrive damaged?

Packing and container loading are our responsibility; in-transit risk follows the trade term in your contract — no blurring. Two steps that protect you: insure the cargo (the premium is small against the value), and photograph everything on arrival. Photos plus the bill of lading are the core of any claim, and we'll support it with documentation.

中文参考

责任分段:包装与装柜是我们的事(木架+纸箱、包装参数逐型号记录、按我们的装柜方案装);运输途中风险按合同贸易条款划分,不含糊。两条实操建议:投保(保费相对货值很低)、到货即拍照取证。真出破损,“照片+提单”就是理赔核心依据,我们配合出具证明。

Will colour stay consistent across a large order?

Within one batch, yes — same material, same run, same process. Across separate batches there will be slight variation; that's inherent to wood and finishing, and we won't dodge it. For project work our advice is direct: order the whole space at once. If staged delivery is unavoidable, we keep a reference sample from the first batch and match later ones to it.

中文参考

同批次一致(同批同料同工艺);跨批次存在轻微差异——木材与涂装的天然属性,不回避。工程建议很直接:一次下单配齐整个空间。确实要分批,我们在第一批留样板,后续批次按样板对齐。

07Projects工程配套

Do you do hotel, restaurant or homestay projects?

Yes — that's our PROJECT FIT-OUT line. One order for a whole property: dining, lounge, bedroom and public areas in matched finishes. We produce free 3D renders and video from your floor plan before you sign, apply value engineering to protect your project margin, and hold batch colour consistency across the whole run. We've delivered boutique homestay and hotel projects in Dubai — specific cases are shared within client authorisation.

中文参考

可以——这是我们的“工程配套”线:一单配齐整个物业(餐厅/客厅/客房/公区,饰面匹配)。签约前先出免费 3D 效果图与视频,价值工程保住您的项目利润,整批批次色差一致。已在迪拜交付多个精品民宿与酒店项目——具体案例以客户授权范围为限分享,不拿别人的项目当自己的案例讲。

What do you need from me for a project quote?

A list and a timeline — quantities by space and your target date — plus the destination and, ideally, floor plans (PDF, CAD or a phone photo all work). We come back with 3D renders and a per-space breakdown, and production starts only after your approval.

中文参考

清单+工期(每个空间的件数、目标交付日),加上目的国,最好有平面图(PDF / CAD / 手机拍照都可以)。我们回 3D 效果图+分空间清单,您签核后才报价排产。

08Working With Us与我们合作

How quickly will I get a quote?

Our target is a quote within one working hour — provided we have the model or drawing, the quantity, and your destination port or door. If something's missing, we come straight back and ask for everything at once. WhatsApp is the fastest channel, and we reply 7 days a week.

中文参考

目标:1 个工作小时内报价——前提是信息够(型号或图纸、数量、目的港或门点)。信息不齐时,我们先把缺的一次问清,不拖到一小时才说“资料不够”。WhatsApp 是最快的通道,每周 7 天都有人回。

Will one person handle my order from start to finish?

Yes — one salesperson from inquiry through shipment, no handoffs. Project and custom orders also get product-development support alongside. And here's something checkable: if we ever pass a promised window, nudge us a second time — a second nudge gets priority.

中文参考

是——一名业务员从询盘跟到出货,不转手、不踢皮球;工程与定制订单有产品开发人员协同。可检验的承诺:若超过约定时限,请直接催第二遍——第二次催单会被优先处理。
