LED Light Manufacturers in China
There are plenty of LED light manufacturers in China, big and small, all across the country. It appears to be easy to find someone who makes LED lights. Unfortunately, it’s not easy to find those who can truly offer stable quality performance in the long run.
Difficulties in finding the right manufacturers
You can find information about LED light suppliers on the web, and also from exhibitions and through social connections. Especially, major B2B websites and search engines make it extremely easy to collect supplier profiles.
However, what you can collect via such channels is only information, rather than facts that you can rely on for direct decisions. It will still take you extra effort to do fact checks and verify critical points. Even the initial step of supplier screening won’t be easy.
Generally, the information on the web is selectively published by the manufacturers themselves. Some B2B websites do a better job to verify some points that are very basic. Examples can be whether the companies are manufacturers or trading companies.
Unquestionably, this is a helpful step for basic screening. But that is all the major B2B sites can do. They have their advantages, which are very good for most buyers; and their disadvantages are obvious too – not focusing on any industry and no in-depth professionalism.
As a common practice, they ask registered users to submit documents for basic verification. And it’s also possible for them to send people to audit as an extra paid service. As you may understand, it’s not easy to find an expert in a specific industry.
Such verifications are necessary, but still a few steps away from picking the right ones. And there will be additional effort and costs to move forward. Meanwhile, you buy a product, but quite often, you are not an expert in producing it.
Solutions by BackMorning
BackMorning is a third-party quality inspection company focusing on the LED lighting industry since the day Hank Wang founded it. We’ve been working with some of the most reputable lighting brands and manufacturers for some years.
The founder of BackMorning Hank Wang is a quality engineer and owns the Certificate of Green Belt in Six Sigma. He has been working in the field of quality management since graduation.
From time to time, we receive requests from buyers to help them find reliable manufacturers. Meanwhile, manufacturers ask BackMorning to introduce new customers to them. Gradually, we begin to realize the gap between manufacturers and buyers.
Collecting information is easy, but narrowing and closing the gap between information and the right decision is another thing. It will be very helpful for someone to act in the middle as a bridge to connect both sides.
During the years when Hank and BackMorning people work in the LED lighting industry, we’ve met many excellent LED light manufacturers. We provide various quality assurance services to them, including pre-production audits, pre-shipment inspections, sample testing, etc.
We deeply know they put quality as one of their top priorities for their long-term success. And more importantly, we’ve learned the things that are truly effective for quality assurance, and also the things that appear to be good, but don’t function as we expect in reality.
There are already well-established quality management tools and systems – ISO 9000, 5S, APQP, PPAP, etc. Undeniably, they are very useful tools for assuring product quality systematically. However, there are costs behind everything. It’s not a small cost for both the buyers and manufacturers.
As a rule of thumb, manufacturers will be able to offer reliable quality if they put 80% of the fundamentals of quality management systems into practice. And as for buyers, you don’t really need to check piles of documents and spend days verifying various details for basic screening.
Therefore, BackMorning decides to use our simplified criteria to select some reliable manufacturers, based on the commonly adopted analysis 5M1E (man, machine, material, method, measurement, and environment). And publish on our website to recommend to potential buyers, who pay more attention to LED light quality.
- Simple: The selection procedure can be done by a visit to the factory for just a few hours.
- Effective: You will be able to pick out the top 20% of the LED light manufacturers.
- Low Cost: For all the 3 parties, no one will need to spend too much time and money, except for necessary permission, reception, etc.
