What it is.

i.
i. Philosophy

Seasonal work is booked a year ahead. CNY ships in October; Mid-Autumn ships in June. The colour palette and the auspicious symbol arrive with the brief; the structure is engineered around them.

Sleeves, drawers, ribbon shoppers, laser-cut overlays. We hold the catalogue's deepest bench of red-and-gold treatments, but the work is just as often a soft pink food sleeve or a kraft puzzle book. Gifting is the longer register — birthdays, weddings, corporate hand-offs — and it travels through the year.

Minimum 500 for shoppers, 1,000 for printed cartons. Lead time runs 18–28 days outside the seasonal lock-in; inside it, we reserve press capacity in February for the autumn moon.

What buyers ask first.

Huamei · FAQ

When do I need to book a CNY launch?

Press capacity is reserved by February for the October ship date. The earlier the brief lands, the more structural engineering room there is. Late bookings ship; they just have less room to refine.

What's the MOQ for seasonal work?

500+ for shoppers; 1,000+ for printed cartons. Limited editions occasionally run lower on per-project quote — say so in the brief.

What structures work best for seasonal gifting?

Drawer-and-slipcase carries the most ceremony; sleeves are the lightweight option; laser-cut overlays add the symbol without changing the structure. Red-and-gold treatments are the deepest bench in our catalogue.
