Factory supply at a glance
Source craft pipe cleaners from Yunjian Workshop, the brand of Anping Maoye Metal Products Co., Ltd., with a self-owned factory in Anping, Hebei, China. We supply standard, glitter and mixed-colour chenille stems for wholesale purchasing, not individual craft orders. Common diameters are 6 mm, 7 mm and 8 mm, with a common length of approximately 30 cm. A common bulk reference is 100 pieces per bundle; carton count, weight and dimensions depend on the final specification. Colours, pack ratios and OEM packaging can be discussed. MOQ depends on stock, production and packaging requirements. Samples and transport arrangements are confirmed per enquiry; EXW, FOB or CIF may be discussed as appropriate.
Choose the format for your sales channel
For a stationery or educational-supply range, specify the number of pieces in each classroom or retail pack. For a craft shop, define individual colour lines and mixed assortments separately. For flower-making kits, compare stem fullness and bending feel against a physical sample instead of assuming that every 8 mm stem performs identically.
A practical starting assortment
Compare 6 mm for general craft packs with 7 mm or 8 mm where a fuller appearance is useful. Select colour codes from the chart, then write down the quantity of each colour in an assortment. These are sample-planning options, not claims about South African sales trends. Trial quantities and production MOQ must be agreed before ordering.
Bulk supply or retail packaging?
Bulk bundles can suit buyers who distribute or repack materials themselves. Retail bags, header cards, labels and boxes need an approved piece count and artwork version. If you sell through several channels, retain one product specification and manage each pack format as a separate SKU. Custom colours and printed packaging may have different minimum quantities.
Shipping to South Africa
Tell us the receiving city and whether you have a nominated forwarder. Durban, Cape Town or a delivery to an inland destination such as Johannesburg should not be treated as interchangeable freight requests. The final route, shipment volume, delivery responsibilities and quotation basis must be confirmed. No fixed freight price, local stock, duty-paid service or guaranteed transit time is advertised here.
Confirm import arrangements before dispatch
The buyer and customs agent should confirm importer registration, classification, documents and applicable taxes with the South African Revenue Service. Do not rely on a generic product page for a tariff code or landed-cost calculation. See the official SARS importer guidance and our South Africa order-planning checklist.
Questions before placing an order
Do you have stock in South Africa?
This website describes supply from our factory in Anping, Hebei, China. We do not advertise a South African warehouse; available colours and dispatch timing must be confirmed.
What sizes can South African buyers request?
Common diameters are 6 mm, 7 mm and 8 mm, with a common length of approximately 30 cm. Approve the final dimensions against the quotation and sample.
How many pieces are in a carton?
A common bulk reference is 100 pieces per bundle. Final carton quantity, dimensions and gross weight depend on the diameter and packaging.
What is the MOQ?
MOQ is confirmed for the selected stock, colour, production specification and packaging. A custom colour or printed retail pack should not be assumed to have the same MOQ as a standard bulk product.
Can you prepare school-supply or retail packs?
Pack counts, colour ratios, bags, header cards and labels can be discussed. For children's use, tell us the intended age range and documentation requirements before ordering; no certification is implied.
Can I order samples before a wholesale order?
Samples can be discussed to compare size, colour, wire feel and packaging. Sample charges, freight and timing are confirmed for the request.
Can you quote shipping to Johannesburg?
Share the receiving address type, order volume and forwarder arrangements. Freight to an inland destination requires a different scope from a port-only quotation.
Can you supply an exact landed cost in rand on this page?
No. Product specification, freight, import charges and exchange rates need to be confirmed for the actual order. We do not publish an invented local-currency price.
