What is the MOQ for your lenses? This is one of the most common questions that lens manufactures be asked by optical lens buyers.
In fact, MOQ is not use to raise the bar for procurement, but about ensuring product quality, improving production efficiency, and ultimately helping customers obtain more competitive prices.
This article will explain our company’s MOQ from a lens manufacturer’s perspective:
1. Stock Lens
For Chinese lens factories, we usually make sufficient stock for the commonly used lens model in worldwide. So that when clients need to deliver order soon we can support them and help them to save more time.
Furthermore, produce stock lens in large quantity can reduce production costs, so we can give more competitive for lens buyers.
Trust Industrial stock lens models includes: 1.56 ASP coated lens, 1.56 ASP blue cut lens, 1.56 ASP photogrey lens, and 1.56 photogrey blue cut lens.
For these lenses order we have adequate stock, can achieve fast delivery. Usually for 1000 pairs order we can shipped within 3-5days.
In addition, we also maintain a stock of high-indexr lenses, including the 1.60 PMMA none-base blue cut lens and the 1.67 MR-7 none-base blue cut lens.
For these lenses we are in stock, so the MOQ is flexible. Especially for the first import clients, we can supply the lenses according to your demands without setting a fixed MOQ.
Then you can place a small trial order to test our product quality and service. For first-time importers, a small order can also help them study the import process and quickly understand the necessary preparations, facilitating smoother subsequent bulk orders.
2. Custom-Made Products
For less common lens models, such as the 1.56 ASP blue cut HC lens, this model is rare demands in glasses users, so we have not kept in stock , we refer to these lenses as custom-made lenses.
These orders are typically produced based on customer’s specific order, we will use a specific production line to produce,so they usually have a fixed minimum order quantity (MOQ).
In our production process each stage of lens production is a set—for example, coating and lens cleaning are completed using a single set of tools—the process and cost of producing one pair or ten pairs are the same.
Therefore, if the order quantity is too small, material and labor costs will increase significantly. To better control lens costs within a reasonable and acceptable range for the customer,
our factory has set a specific MOQ for custom-made lenses: a minimum order quantity (MOQ) of 1000 pairs, with at least 10 pairs for each prescription, before production can begin.
It is important to note that because custom-made lenses are produced specifically according to order requirements, defective lenses will be screened out during the production process and quality control.
Therefore, customized orders cannot guarantee that the quantity will be exactly the same as the production order, and there may be a shortage or surplus, which is usually within plus or minus 10%.
