Xiamen, China — November 2026. Brand owners and distributors in North America and Europe increasingly buy disposable food packaging as a marketing surface, not just a container. Responding to that shift, Xiamen Ziheng Environmental Technology Co., Ltd. (brand Zeeheng) has formalised its private label printing service for kraft paper bowls, soup cups, coffee cups and ice cream cups, covering the whole chain from artwork preparation to colour proofing, flexographic printing and sealed carton delivery.
| Order Type | Minimum Quantity | Typical Lead Time |
|---|---|---|
| Plain, unbranded items | 3,000 pcs | 1-2 working days for samples |
| Custom logo printed items | 10,000 pcs per item | 5-15 working days for printed samples |
| Regular bulk order | 30,000 pcs | About 15 working days after deposit |
The two-tier minimum quantity is deliberate: 10,000 pieces lets a regional chain or a distributor trial branded packaging in a single market without committing to container-scale volume, while 30,000 pieces and above unlocks the price levels expected for contract and private label programmes.
Different substrates need different treatment. Double PE coated bowls (20PE + 335gsm + 20PE) carry print on the outer kraft surface, so ink adhesion must survive condensation and greasy handling. PLA lined and bamboo fiber bowls need inks and drying conditions that do not compromise compostability claims. Zeeheng's production team selects the ink system and curing profile per material, then verifies adhesion and rub resistance before cartoning.
Printed goods are packed in 5-ply corrugated cartons — typically 500 to 1,000 pieces per carton depending on bowl size — with carton dimensions optimised for container cube. Bulk orders ship about 15 working days after deposit, and express samples reach buyers worldwide in 3 to 5 days by DHL. Trade terms include EXW, FOB, CIF, CNF and FCA, with T/T payment at 50 to 70 percent deposit and the balance before shipment.
Zeeheng has manufactured disposable paper food packaging in Xiang'an District, Xiamen since 2014, employs 100 to 120 people, and exports 80 to 90 percent of its USD 40 to 50 million annual output to supermarkets, restaurant chains, hotels, hospitals and distributors in North America and Europe.
