Bulk sanitary pads and towels, supplied at source
We are the factory behind our own brands — supplying South African importers, distributors and retailers with certified pads and towels at factory price, without a broker margin.
South African buyers searching for bulk sanitary pads and sanitary towels are usually after the same thing: dependable volume, consistent quality and a price that leaves room to compete on the shelf. We supply exactly that as a China-based factory serving the South African market — we are not a local manufacturer and we do not pretend to be one.
With 20+ years of production, exports to 80+ countries and capacity of over 4 billion pads a year, we give importers factory pricing and brand owners a turnkey private-label partner. Free samples ship to South Africa so you can check quality before you commit.

Common questions from South African buyers
What is the minimum order for bulk sanitary pads in South Africa?
Stock lines under our own brands start at 30,000 packs per size. Private-label production starts at 400,000 pieces per SKU. That minimum stock order is a part-load rather than a full container, so it is worth pricing both options — topping up to a full 20ft container often lowers the cost per piece. Tell us your target retail price and we will quote the right tier.
How much do sanitary pads cost wholesale / FOB?
We quote FOB China per piece or per carton, with clear volume breaks. Because we manufacture in-house and sell direct — not as a broker — there is no middleman margin, which is what lets South African importers beat local retail pricing.
Can you private-label sanitary pads and towels for my South African brand?
Yes. Private label is a core service: we handle product spec, certification, artwork and packaging so you can launch your own South African brand of pads and sanitary towels without owning a factory.
Do you ship to Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town?
Yes. We supply importers and distributors across South Africa, delivering to Johannesburg, Durban, Cape Town, Pretoria and Gauteng. Goods ship to your nominated South African port; we handle export documentation from our side.
What certifications do you have for importing into South Africa?
Our products carry FDA, CE, ISO 9001, GOTS, OEKO-TEX and SGS credentials, and we provide the test reports and export paperwork South African importers need to clear customs. Local conformity requirements such as SABS / LOA are handled together with the importer against the final product specification.
Do you supply sanitary towels and adult incontinence products too?
Yes. Alongside sanitary pads we manufacture sanitary towels, panty liners, tampons and a full adult incontinence range — so you can stock a complete shelf from one supplier in a single shipment.
