FAQ
Questions from Philippines
- Do products need FDA registration in the Philippines?
- Many food, cosmetic and health products do. Your adviser confirms requirements.
- Can packaging survive inter-island delivery?
- Yes. We design robust mailers and inserts for long courier journeys.
- Air or sea: which should I choose?
- Air for launches and urgent stock; sea for production volumes where the timeline allows. We quote both so you can compare.
- Can collapsible rigid boxes reduce my shipping cost?
- Yes. They ship flat, so many more fit in each carton, which cuts freight volume and storage. We compare assembled and flat options in your quote.
