Product Spotlight — Cat Trees

Cat trees are our flagship product and represent the breadth of our manufacturing capabilities:

• Materials: MDF or plywood platforms, sisal rope or sisal fabric, faux fur or short plush coverings, soft cushions and metal fittings.
• Construction: CNC-cut panels, edge-banding for a smooth finish, glued and screw-fastened assemblies, and reinforced base plates for stability.
• Customization: Multiple colors, branded nameplates, adjustable heights, convertible modules and package-kitted parts for flat-pack shipping.

4. Manufacturing & Production Process

Our production workflow is optimized to deliver reliable quality and predictable lead times. Below is a summary of our typical OEM process for new projects — from inquiry to delivery.

Step 1 — Inquiry & Requirements

Clients provide product requirements: drawings, desired materials, target price, target launch date and estimated yearly volume. If you have only a concept, our design team can propose solutions and sketches.

Step 2 — Design & Prototyping

We create 2D drawings and 3D renders to finalize dimensions and aesthetics. Prototyping — including physical samples — is done in-house or through our rapid sample workshops. Typical sample lead time: 3–10 working days depending on complexity.

Step 3 — Tooling & Material Sourcing

For products requiring molds or special tooling (e.g., injection-molded plastic parts), we coordinate mold design and approval. For wood and textile items, we prepare cutting patterns and fabric swatches for approval.

Step 4 — Mass Production

Once samples are approved and pre-production samples (PPS) are signed off, we commence mass production. Our lines include woodworking, textile cutting & sewing, assembly, and packing stations. Production is tracked with daily reports and quality checkpoints.

Step 5 — Quality Control & Testing

We conduct in-line inspections and final pre-shipment inspections. For specialized testing (e.g., toy safety, chemical testing of fabrics), we coordinate with third-party test labs per client requirements. Typical QC steps include:

• Incoming material inspection
• First-piece inspection
• In-line quality checks every production shift
• Final inspection before packing

Step 6 — Packaging & Shipping

We supply standard export carton packing and tailored retail packaging. You can select shipping methods — FOB Ningbo, CIF, DDP or arrange your own freight forwarder. We provide packing lists, commercial invoices and export documents to facilitate customs clearance.

5. Quality Assurance & Certifications

Quality is central to our operation. We maintain systematic procedures to minimize defects and ensure product longevity. While specific certifications depend on the SKU and buyer request, GMTPET commonly supports:

• ISO management processes for documented quality control
• BSCI (factory social compliance) and support for client audits
• Lab testing coordination for EN71 (toy safety), ASTM (where applicable), and chemical tests such as AZO / formaldehyde / heavy metals for fabrics and finishes

We welcome third-party pre-shipment inspections and buyer factory visits. Many clients also request sample batch testing before large runs — GMTPET can facilitate sample submission to accredited labs with full testing reports.

6. Customization & Packaging

Brand differentiation often depends on small details — custom colors, logo printing, branded hang tags, and retail-ready packaging. Our customization services include:

• Custom colors and fabric selections
• Private label sewing and tags
• Branded packaging: color boxes, blister cards and printed cartons
• Instruction manual design and multi-language inserts
• UPC/EAN/GS1 label application and barcode printing

We also provide guidance on reducing volumetric weight and designing flat-packed solutions to save on shipping costs while keeping assembly straightforward for end users.

7. Sustainability & Responsible Sourcing

GMTPET understands that sustainability and responsible sourcing are increasingly important to retailers and consumers. We work toward reducing waste, using certified wood where possible and offering eco-friendly packaging choices. Practices we encourage:

• Use of FSC- or PEFC-certified wood upon request
• Recycled/recyclable corrugated cartons for outer packaging
• Water-based paints and low-VOC finishes
• Minimizing single-use plastics in packaging

For clients with sustainability targets, we are happy to develop an action plan that documents material choices, supplier practices and measurable improvements over time.

8. R&D and New Product Development

Our R&D team combines market research with practical engineering to develop innovative pet products. From ergonomic bed designs to modular cat towers that fit small apartments, our team focuses on products that are durable, functional and appealing to consumers.

Typical R&D cycle

1. Market & competitor analysis
2. Concept sketches and 3D modeling
3. Material selection and prototype iteration
4. Durability testing and consumer feedback rounds

We also help clients with brand-driven product lines, seasonal collections and promotional items for events such as pet expos, holidays, or retailer campaigns.

9. Case Study

Client: European specialty pet retailer (Germany)

Objective: Produce a private-label multi-level cat tree series that matched the client’s Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic, delivered under a tight timeline and shipped to multiple EU distribution centers.

Solution

GMTPET proposed a plywood-based modular cat tree system with white-laminated panels, natural sisal posts and removable plush cushions. We coordinated the design, produced PPS samples, arranged third-party testing for EU toy & furniture safety, and optimized flat-pack packaging for space-efficient shipping.

Results

• Sample approval within 9 days after initial concept.
• Mass production completed within the requested lead time; defects below 0.8% after inline QC.
• Reduced shipping volume by 22% through optimized flat-pack design.
• Successful product launch in 50+ retail stores across Germany and online marketplaces.

This case highlights our project management, compliance support and ability to scale production while controlling costs.

10. Shipping, Logistics & After-sales

We work with multiple freight forwarders and can ship via container (LCL/FCL), air or courier depending on urgency and budget. Common options we support:

• FOB Ningbo (most common)
• CIF to named port
• DDP to warehouse (by negotiation and compliance)

After-sales support includes replacement parts, troubleshooting for assembly issues, and warranty coordination per the agreement with our buyers.

11. Pricing, MOQ & Lead Times

Pricing varies significantly by product type, material and customization. Typical ranges and examples:

Notes: Minimum order quantities and lead times depend on current factory capacity, material availability and the degree of customization. For urgent production runs we may be able to prioritize with a premium or split the production into stages.
