The Melamine Advantage: Why Choose Melamine Bowls?

Superior Performance Compared to Alternatives

Exceptional Durability, Less Breakage
Unlike fragile ceramic or glass, melamine bowls are highly resistant to chipping, cracking, and shattering. This translates to lower replacement costs for businesses (restaurants, schools) and safer use in homes, especially those with children. Say goodbye to constant breakage worries!

Lightweight & Easy Handling
Melamine is significantly lighter than ceramic, making it easier for staff to carry multiple bowls and for customers (including kids and seniors) to handle. This improves efficiency and user experience.

Design Versatility & Vibrancy
Melamine allows for intricate patterns, vibrant colors, and custom designs that are permanently molded, unlike decals on some plastics that can peel. Achieve high-end looks resembling ceramic or unique brand aesthetics easily. Our printing capabilities ensure your custom melamine bowls stand out.

Why Choose Melamine Bowls
How to Customize Your Perfect Melamine Bowls

How to Customize Your Perfect Melamine Bowls?

Select Bowl Size & Shape: Choose from standard sizes (e.g., 4″, 6″, 8″) or provide specifications for a custom shape/size. We can work from drawings or samples.

Confirm Your Artwork: Send us your print-ready design files. We’ll create a final digital proof for your approval before mass production begins, ensuring your personalized melamine bowls look exactly right.

Determine Order Quantity: Our standard Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) is typically 3000 pieces per specific bowl item (size/shape/material). Discuss bulk volume needs for potential advantages.

Choose Packaging: Select standard bulk packing (e.g., individual wrapping, dividers, master cartons – 24/48/72 pcs) or opt for value-added options like custom-printed inner boxes or retail-ready gift boxes.

Arrange Logistics & Shipping: We offer various shipping options (Sea Freight, Rail, Air Freight) and work with your preferred forwarders or provide quotes.

Payment Terms: Standard terms are typically a 50% deposit to initiate production, with the 50% balance due before shipment upon confirmation (photos/videos of finished goods provided).

Committed to Quality: Certifications & Standards

  • Key Certifications: FDA (USA), LFGB (Germany/EU), California Proposition 65 compliant.
  • Material Integrity: We ensure all materials used are BPA-Free.
  • Rigorous QC: Every production batch undergoes sampling inspections, and final goods are checked according to AQL 2.5/4.0 (TP standard) before shipment, guaranteeing consistency for your melamine bowls wholesale orders.

Choosing the Right Melamine Bowl

Choosing the Right Melamine Bowl: A Buyer's Guide

Not all bowls are created equal. Consider these factors:

For Restaurants/Catering
Focus on durability (A5 Melamine recommended), stackability, standard sizes (like melamine pasta bowls, pho bowls, salad bowls), and ease of washing (melamine bowls dishwasher safe).

For Retail/Home Goods
Aesthetics are key. Offer sets, unique designs (custom melamine bowls), various sizes, and consider attractive packaging. Bamboo melamine offers an eco-chic appeal.

For Kids’ Products:
Prioritize safety (BPA-Free, shatterproof), fun designs, and appropriate sizing (Kids Bowls). Durability is crucial.

For Pet Products
Ensure melamine dog bowls are sturdy, non-porous, easy to clean, and made from safe materials (confirm suitability if specific claims are made).

For Promotional Gifts
Personalized melamine bowls with logos or specific branding offer a durable and useful giveaway item

Understanding Melamine Bowl Pricing Factors

What Influences the Cost of Your Custom Bowls?

Material Choice

  • A5 Melamine: Premium, food-grade, most durable – standard pricing base.
  • Bamboo Fiber Melamine: Eco-appeal, often priced similarly to or slightly above A5.
  • A1 Melamine: Most cost-effective (approx. 10% lower than A5), suitable for specific applications but generally not recommended for primary food service due to lower heat resistance and potential durability differences. Still BPA-Free.


Product Weight (Grams)
Heavier bowls require more raw material, directly impacting the cost. Thicker walls mean increased durability but also higher price.

Packaging Complexity
Standard bulk packing is the most economical. Custom inner boxes, color gift boxes, labels, or specialized protective packaging will add to the per-unit cost but can significantly increase retail value.

Custom Mold Creation for Melamine Bowls

Need a Unique Shape? Custom Mold Creation

Beyond Standard: Full Custom Mold Development Available.

If our extensive range doesn’t include the exact shape or size you need, we offer complete Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) services.

  • Process: Provide us with your design specifications, drawings, or a physical sample.
  • Standard Costs: Typically, a new melamine bowl mold costs approximately US$950, with a sampling fee of US$120.
  • Mold Fee Rebate: We invest in our partnerships! When your cumulative order value for products using that specific custom mold reaches US$28,500, we will fully refund the initial US$950 mold fee.

Flexible Printing: Multiple Designs Within One Order

Want to offer customers multiple coordinating designs within a single shipment? We make it possible! While our MOQ of 3000 pieces applies to each specific bowl item  (size/shape/material), you can split the printing designs across that quantity.

How it Works?

The first design print setup is included in the standard cost. For each additional unique print design applied within that same 3000-piece item run, an extra setup fee of approximately US$150 applies.

Example:

Order 3000 x 6″ Round A5 Melamine Bowls. You want 750 pcs of Design A, 750 pcs of Design B, 750 pcs of Design C, and 750 pcs of Design D. The additional cost would be 3 (additional designs) x US$150 = US$450, plus the standard per-bowl price. This allows for greater retail variety with manageable inventory.

Melamine Bowl Printing Capabilities

Understanding Melamine Bowl Printing Capabilities

We use high-quality, water-based inks that are food-safe, environmentally conscious, and result in vibrant, long-lasting designs embedded within the melamine.

Ink & Safety
Our inks are non-toxic and safe for food contact surfaces.

Coverage Options

  • Single-Sided (Most Common – 90%): Print typically covers the entire interior surface OR the entire exterior side surface. Note: Printing usually excludes the very bottom exterior due to structural ribs common in molding.
  • Double-Sided (Less Common): Printing on both the interior and exterior is possible. However, interior printing usually cannot extend fully to the absolute bottom surface in this case due to molding process requirements.


Bottom Markings
The underside often features molded (debossed/embossed) information like your logo, care symbols (Dishwasher Safe icon, NOT Microwave Safe icon), and BPA-FREE mark, rather than printed designs.

Versatile by Design: Melamine Bowls for Every Setting

Your Questions About Melamine Bowls Answered

Are melamine bowls safe for everyday use? Is melamine toxic?

Yes, high-quality melamine bowls (like our A5 and Bamboo variants made for food) are safe for everyday food use when used correctly. They are made from FDA/LFGB approved, BPA-Free materials. The key is not to heat them excessively (e.g., in a microwave), as this could potentially cause harmful chemicals to leach. For normal serving temperatures, they are perfectly safe. The question “are melamine bowls good or bad” depends on quality and proper use – high-quality ones used correctly are good.

How can I test the quality of a melamine bowl?

A simple field test for basic durability (though not definitive for material grade) is a drop test. Dropping an empty bowl from approximately table height (around 50cm / 1.5-2 feet) onto a hard floor shouldn’t cause it to shatter or crack if it’s decent quality melamine. Repeated drops or drops from higher may cause damage eventually. Lab testing is required for material composition and safety compliance.

Can melamine bowls go in the microwave?

No, absolutely not. Melamine is not designed for microwave use. It can overheat, potentially warp, crack, and release harmful substances. Always look for the “Microwave Safe” symbol – melamine will not have it.

Are melamine bowls dishwasher safe?

Generally, yes. Most of our melamine bowls are top-rack dishwasher safe. However, high heat drying cycles and harsh detergents can sometimes dull the finish over time. Hand washing is always the gentlest option for longevity, but top-rack washing is acceptable for convenience.

Are melamine bowls BPA-Free?

Yes, all the melamine materials (A5, Bamboo Fiber blend, A1) we use are BPA-Free. This is a key safety feature we ensure.

Are melamine bowls freezer safe?

Melamine can become brittle at very low temperatures. While short periods might be okay for chilling food, prolonged storage in the freezer is generally not recommended as it could increase the risk of cracking, especially upon temperature change.

Can I use a hand mixer in a melamine bowl?

 It’s generally not recommended. While durable, the force and potential scraping from metal beaters could scratch or damage the surface of melamine mixing bowls over time. It’s safer to use glass, stainless steel, or specifically designed plastic mixing bowls for electric mixers.

Are melamine bowls safe for dogs?

Yes, melamine dog bowls made from high-quality, BPA-Free melamine are considered a safe option. They are durable, less porous than some plastics (reducing bacterial growth if cleaned properly), and don’t break like ceramic. Ensure they are regularly cleaned.

What's the main difference between A1 and A5 melamine?

A5 melamine (100% melamine resin) is considered food-grade, has higher heat resistance, better durability, and glossier finish – ideal for dinnerware. A1 melamine has a lower percentage of melamine resin mixed with urea-formaldehyde resin, making it cheaper but less durable, less heat resistant, and typically not certified food-grade for regular meal use. Both are BPA-Free in our production.

Can you print on the bottom of the bowl?

We typically don’t print intricate designs on the very bottom exterior due to structural elements (like feet or ribs) from the molding process. However, we can mold custom logos, recycling codes, or care instructions (like ‘Dishwasher Safe’, ‘No Microwave’, ‘BPA-Free’) directly into the bottom during manufacturing.
