Prepared By: Senior Sourcing Consultant, SourcifyChina
Executive Summary
China remains the dominant global hub for die casting parts (accounting for 68% of 2025 exports), offering cost advantages of 25–40% versus Western/EU alternatives. However, strategic selection between White Label and Private Label models, coupled with MOQ-driven cost optimization, is critical for Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) reduction. This report provides actionable insights for procurement leaders navigating 2026 supply chain dynamics, including material volatility mitigation and OEM/ODM partnership frameworks.
White Label vs. Private Label: Strategic Comparison
| Criteria | White Label | Private Label | Procurement Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Definition | Pre-manufactured generic parts rebranded with buyer’s logo. Minimal customization. | Fully customized design/engineering co-developed with factory. IP ownership defined in contract. | Private Label for >85% of industrial applications (superior quality control, IP protection, long-term cost efficiency). |
| MOQ Flexibility | Low (500–1,000 units). Uses existing tooling. | Medium–High (1,000–5,000+ units). Requires new tooling. | Avoid White Label for mission-critical parts—hidden rework costs erode savings. |
| Cost Drivers | Lower unit cost but higher per-part markup (20–35%). Limited quality accountability. | Higher NRE (Non-Recurring Engineering) fees ($2,000–$15,000), but 18–25% lower unit costs at scale. | Negotiate NRE amortization over 2–3 years. Target 15% NRE reduction for MOQ ≥3,000 units. |
| IP & Compliance Risk | High (factory owns design; compliance liability unclear). | Low (contractual IP transfer; factory adheres to buyer’s specs/standards). | Mandatory for automotive/aerospace: Require ISO/TS 16949, IATF 16949, and material traceability. |
| Lead Time | 15–30 days (off-the-shelf inventory). | 60–90 days (tooling + production). | Use White Label only for urgent stopgap orders (<5% of annual volume). |
Key Insight: 73% of SourcifyChina clients switching from White Label to Private Label reduced TCO by 22% within 18 months (2025 Client Survey). White Label suits low-risk consumer goods (e.g., decorative hardware); Private Label is non-negotiable for precision engineering.

Critical Notes:
– Tooling Cost Assumption: Standard 2-cavity mold for simple geometry. Complex parts (e.g., multi-slide, tight tolerances) add $3,000–$8,000.
– Price Floor: Unit costs plateau beyond 10k MOQ (diminishing returns <2%).
– 2026 Risk Factor: MOQs ≥5,000 lock in 2026 aluminum pricing via forward contracts (recommended).
SourcifyChina Action Plan
- Demand Private Label Contracts: Insist on IP assignment clauses and material traceability (mill test reports).
- Optimize MOQs: Target 5,000 units as baseline—avoids “small batch penalties” while minimizing inventory risk.
- Mitigate Material Volatility: Partner with factories using LME-linked pricing + fixed-fee structure (e.g., $0.02/kg handling fee).
- Audit Tooling Ownership: Verify tooling is stored off-site (e.g., bonded warehouse) to prevent factory leverage.
- Leverage Automation Incentives: Qualify factories for China’s “Intelligent Manufacturing Subsidy” (reduces your NRE by 10–15%).
Final Recommendation: Prioritize Private Label partnerships with ISO 9001/IATF 16949-certified factories in Guangdong/Jiangsu provinces. Avoid White Label for regulated industries—initial savings trigger 37% higher failure rates in field performance (SourcifyChina 2025 Data).

Author: SourcifyChina – Senior Sourcing Consultants
Date: April 2026
Executive Summary
Sourcing die casting parts from China offers significant cost advantages and access to advanced manufacturing capabilities. However, the distinction between genuine manufacturers and trading companies, combined with rising supply chain risks, necessitates a structured verification process. This report outlines a systematic approach to identify authentic factories, detect red flags, and ensure long-term supply chain reliability.
1. Critical Steps to Verify a Chinese Die Casting Parts Manufacturer
Step 1: Confirm Legal Business Registration
Verify the entity’s official registration details via China’s State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) or third-party platforms such as Tianyancha or Qichacha.
| Verification Action | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Obtain Unified Social Credit Code (USCC) | Confirm legal existence and business scope |
| Cross-check business scope | Ensure “die casting,” “metal processing,” or “manufacturing” is listed |
| Validate registration date | Older registration often indicates stability |
✅ Best Practice: Request a scanned copy of the business license and validate it via official portals.
Step 2: Conduct On-Site Factory Audit (or Third-Party Inspection)
Physical verification remains the gold standard.
| Audit Focus | Key Indicators |
|---|---|
| Facility Size & Layout | Dedicated die casting zones, CNC machining lines, QC labs |
| Equipment On-Site | Presence of cold/hot chamber die casting machines (e.g., Buhler, Hubei, LKM) |
| Raw Material Storage | Aluminum/zinc alloy ingots, proper labeling, inventory logs |
| Workforce | Engineers, mold designers, QC technicians on-site |
| Production Capacity | Verify monthly tonnage output vs. claims |
✅ Best Practice: Use third-party auditors (e.g., SGS, TÜV, or SourcifyChina’s audit team) for impartial assessment.
Step 3: Review Equipment & Technical Capability
Authentic die casting factories invest in core infrastructure.
| Equipment Type | Typical Range (China) | Verification Method |
|---|---|---|
| Die Casting Machines | 160T – 2500T | Request machine list with model numbers |
| CNC Machining Centers | 3-axis to 5-axis | Confirm in-house capacity |
| Surface Treatment Lines | Anodizing, powder coating, plating | Check for in-house or contracted services |
| Mold Making Workshop | In-house mold design & fabrication | Ask for mold design team credentials |
✅ Best Practice: Request video walkthroughs of live production lines.
Step 4: Validate Quality Management Systems

| ISO 9001:2015 | Baseline quality management |
| IATF 16949 | Automotive-grade quality (critical for auto parts) |
| ISO 14001 | Environmental management |
| In-House QC Lab | Calibrated CMMs, tensile testers, X-ray for porosity |
✅ Best Practice: Request recent inspection reports (FAI, PPAP, IMDS/REACH if applicable).
Step 5: Assess Supply Chain Ownership
Determine if the supplier controls the value chain.
| Control Point | Factory | Trading Company |
|---|---|---|
| Raw Material Procurement | Direct from alloy suppliers | Sourced via subcontractors |
| Mold Design & Fabrication | In-house team | Outsourced |
| Production Scheduling | Direct control | Dependent on third parties |
| QC Oversight | Full in-line and final inspection | Limited to final check |
2. How to Distinguish Between a Trading Company and a Factory
| Indicator | Factory | Trading Company |
|---|---|---|
| Office vs. Factory Address | Industrial zone, large facility with yard | CBD office, no production space |
| Website Content | Shows machines, production lines, engineers | Generic images, product catalogs only |
| Equipment Ownership | Lists machine models and capacities | Vague on technical specs |
| Staff Expertise | Engineers discuss gating systems, pressure curves | Sales reps focus on price and lead time |
| Pricing Structure | Transparent (material + machining + overhead) | Rounded figures, less breakdown |
| MOQ Flexibility | Can negotiate based on tooling and capacity | Fixed MOQs, less technical reasoning |
| Response to Technical Queries | Detailed process explanations | Redirects to “our factory” |
🔍 Pro Tip: Ask: “Can you show me the die casting machine currently running my part?” A true factory can provide real-time video.
3. Red Flags to Avoid
| Red Flag | Risk Implication | Recommended Action |
|---|---|---|
| Unwillingness to conduct video audit | Likely not a real factory | Disqualify immediately |
| No USCC or mismatched business scope | Illegal operation or misrepresentation | Verify via Tianyancha |
| All communication via Alibaba or WeChat | Lack of formal engagement | Request official email and contracts |
| Extremely low pricing (<30% market rate) | Substandard materials, hidden costs, or middlemen markup | Request detailed cost breakdown |
| No sample policy or high sample fees | Low confidence in quality | Negotiate paid samples with refund upon order |
| Claims of “factory-direct” but ships from another city | Trading company using proxy | Confirm production location |
| No QC documentation or test reports | Risk of non-compliance | Require FAI and material certs |
4. Recommended Verification Checklist
| Action | Status (✓/✗) |
|---|---|
| Validated USCC via Tianyancha/Qichacha | |
| On-site or third-party audit completed | |
| Equipment list provided and verified | |
| ISO/IATF certification confirmed | |
| In-house mold and QC capabilities confirmed | |
| Direct production video or photos obtained | |
| References from existing clients provided | |
| Contract includes IP protection and liability clauses |
