Strategic Framework: White Label vs. Private Label
Key differentiators for 350W DC motor procurement:
| Criteria | White Label | Private Label | Strategic Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Definition | Factory’s generic product rebranded | Buyer-designed specs + factory production | Private label preferred for >1,000 units; ensures IP control & differentiation |
| Lead Time | 2-4 weeks (ready inventory) | 8-14 weeks (custom tooling/QC) | White label only for urgent, low-volume needs |
| MOQ Flexibility | Fixed (e.g., 500 units) | Negotiable (down to 300 units with NRE) | Private label MOQs falling 15% YoY due to modular production |
| IP Protection | None (factory owns design) | Full (buyer retains IP) | Mandatory for competitive markets; verify via China Patent Office records |
| Quality Consistency | Variable (batch-dependent) | High (locked specs + buyer QA audits) | Private label reduces field failure rates by 22% (SourcifyChina 2025 benchmark) |
| Cost per Unit (500 pcs) | $48.50-$52.00 | $51.20-$55.80 | Long-term savings via private label: +7% unit cost offset by 15% lower returns |
Key Takeaway: White label suits immediate, low-risk needs; private label is essential for brand control, compliance (e.g., EU CE), and total cost optimization beyond 1,000 units. Avoid factories refusing private label – indicates limited engineering capability.
