"How Hanbi Achieves Large-Scale Production to Ensure That Hotel Environmental Purchases Are No Longer 'Expensive and Out of Stock'"！

Environmental protection policies are becoming increasingly strict. The prices of degradable materials fluctuate greatly and the supply is unstable. Small suppliers often go out of stock without any notice... These are the pains that many hotel procurement managers face. When it comes to purchasing environmentally friendly consumables, the biggest fear is not the higher price, but the breakdown of the supply chain. Hanbi has completely solved the industry pain point of "environmental protection = shortage = high price" with its super production capacity of 100 million sets per year, 20 patent technologies and flexible production system. This article will tell you from three dimensions - production scale, supply guarantee and cost control - why large factories are the optimal choice for hotel procurement.

Many hotel purchasing managers compare eco-friendly toothbrushes, slippers, and combs based solely on the unit price, but they overlook a fatal issue: How long can your supplier maintain a stable supply?

The reason why ordinary plastic consumables are cheap is that the petrochemical industry chain is mature and has a huge production capacity. However, the production threshold for environmentally friendly degradable materials (such as PLA, straw fibers, corn fibers) is high. Small factories usually only have a few production lines, and their production capacity is insufficient during peak seasons. Even worse, they need to have the hotel prepare goods 3 months in advance. Once the supply is cut off, the hotel can only go back to buy ordinary plastic, losing all the previous efforts.

Toothbrush production line: Produces over 300,000 units per day, and can simultaneously manufacture various materials such as straw, PLA, and bamboo fiber.

Shoe production line: Produces over 50,000 pairs per day. Features corn fiber sole and washable inner lining. Two production lines operate simultaneously.

Comprehensive production lines for items such as combs, shower caps, and razors: all have been fully automated with injection molding and packaging.

Warehousing capacity: Own central warehouse + regional distribution centers, capable of meeting the immediate stock replenishment needs of over 300 hotels.

Compared with ordinary material suppliers: The majority of one-time plastic product suppliers are small workshops, lacking in R&D and quality control capabilities, let alone environmental protection certifications. Once the "plastic restriction order" is fully implemented, these workshops will be unable to produce degradable products in compliance with regulations. They will either close down or cut corners to sell "pseudo-degradable" products. However, Hanbi has obtained certifications such as ISO9001, ISO14001, OEKO‑TEX®, and OK Compost. The larger the scale, the lower the unit cost, and the more stable the supply.

What the hotel purchasing personnel are most concerned about is: When the scale expands, can the prices be reduced?

The answer is yes. Hanbi has directly reduced the procurement cost of environmental protection consumables through three major scale effects:

Centralized procurement of raw materials: The annual purchase volume of raw materials such as PLA (polylactic acid), straw powder, and corn fibers exceeds several thousand tons. The bargaining power is far greater than that of small factories, and the raw material cost is 8% - 12% lower than the industry average.

Mould and equipment amortization: Among the 20 patents, 6 are related to mould optimization. A set of high-precision moulds can produce millions of products, and the cost of a single mould has been reduced to less than 0.01 yuan.

Automated packaging and logistics: Fully automatic bagging, boxing, and palletizing, reducing labor costs by 40%; at the same time, through volume compression design (such as folding toothbrushes, compressing slippers), each container can hold 30% - 40% more goods, further reducing logistics costs.
Comparison with ordinary plastics: Currently, the purchase price of ordinary plastic toothbrushes is approximately 0.5 - 0.7 yuan. After Hanbi's large-scale production, the price of its straw toothbrushes has dropped to 0.9 - 1.1 yuan, with the price difference reduced to around 0.4 yuan. Considering the cost of customer complaints, brand premium, and policy risks, this price difference can already be fully covered. Moreover, as Hanbi's production capacity continues to increase, it is expected to further shrink to within 0.2 yuan within the next 1 - 2 years.

Many hotels want to customize their logos, exclusive colors, and special fragrances, but small suppliers often demand a minimum order of "100,000 units". Hanbi's scale advantage is also reflected in its flexible production capabilities:

Low minimum order quantity: For custom toothbrushes, an order of 5,000 pieces is required as the minimum. For combs, an order of 3,000 pieces is the minimum.

Rapid prototyping: Self-built design and 3D printing center, samples available in 3 days, confirmation within 7 days.

Mixed packaging of multiple categories: It is possible to package toothbrushes, combs, slippers and shower caps together according to the hotel's requirements, thus reducing the hotel's secondary sorting costs.

Compared with ordinary plastic suppliers: Most ordinary material suppliers only sell standard products and do not offer customization, or the customization cycle can be as long as 1 month. Hanbi's flexible production enables environmentally friendly consumables to achieve "one store, one look", helping hotels create unique brand memory points.

The biggest risk for small suppliers is batch instability: this batch of toothbrush bristles is hard, and the next batch of combs has rough teeth, resulting in continuous customer complaints. Hanbi has established a complete quality control system based on its scale.

Raw material batch retention samples: For each batch of PLA and straw powder, 2-year retention samples are kept for traceability.

Online visual inspection: Indicators such as the roundness of the bristle surface of toothbrushes and the flatness of the teeth tips of combs are monitored in real time by AI cameras, and defective products are automatically removed.

Third-party inspection: Every quarter, samples are sent to SGS or ITS for testing of degradation rate, heavy metals, and microorganisms. The results are publicly available for review.

Comparison effect: A certain chain hotel once purchased both "environmentally friendly toothbrushes" from a small factory and Hanbi toothbrushes. In the batches from the small factory, the rate of blunt bristles was only 72% (the national standard requires ≥90%), which led to 12% of the guests reporting gum discomfort; while all batches of Hanbi met the standards, and there were zero customer complaints. This is the relationship between scale and quality control.

By choosing Hanbi, you don't just get a single product, but an entire set of "stable, low-cost, customizable, and traceable" environmental-friendly consumables supply system. With an annual production capacity of 100 million sets, you don't have to worry about supply disruptions, endure high prices, or be anxious about quality control.

Action suggestion: If your hotel's annual usage exceeds 100,000 items, you can directly contact Hanbi to sign an annual framework agreement to lock in prices and production capacity, and enjoy the benefits of scale. Environmental protection is not a cost, but a battle won through the power of scale.
