2. Prototyping Custom Stress Toys

Many clients prefer not to dive into the intricate details of creating custom stress toys—and that's perfectly fine. Since its establishment in 2003, Qimeng Toy Factory has successfully served thousands of clients, involving them only when necessary to save their valuable time.

2.1 Creating a Prototype for Stress Toys

Based on your concept sketches and ideas, we use advanced 3D printing technology to craft prototypes for your stress toys. Once the prototype is completed, we ship it directly to you for review. (Note: These prototypes are made from hard resin and are not squeezable at this stage.)

Your feedback is essential—any required adjustments to the prototype's shape will be implemented to ensure the final product aligns perfectly with your expectations.

2.2 Producing Sample Stress Toys

After finalizing the prototype, we create a toy mold and produce a batch of test samples. Logos, graphics, and slogans can be added through painting and printing to closely mimic the appearance and feel of the final product.

These sample stress toys will be shipped to you for hands-on evaluation, allowing you to review both their design and functionality before moving to mass production.

3. Stress Toy Manufacturing Process

Once your design is approved, we begin mass production of your custom stress balls! The manufacturing process involves the following steps:

3.1 Raw Material Formulation

At Qimeng Toy Factory, we use premium materials such as TPR, TPU, and TPE, which are non-toxic, eco-friendly, and comply with CPC and CE certifications for child safety. Over years of experience, we've developed unique formulas that enhance oil resistance, durability, and weather resistance, while ensuring visually appealing designs.

3.2 Toy Molding and Production

Using injection molding technology, we produce stress toys by injecting materials into custom molds. After demolding, any excess material is meticulously trimmed to ensure a smooth, flawless finish. The toys then undergo a strict quality control process to check for issues such as air bubbles or surface imperfections, ensuring every product meets our high standards.

3.3 Assembly and Filling

The filling materials, such as those that determine softness, firmness, and rebound speed, are selected during the initial design stage. During production, these materials are carefully added and sealed to create the perfect tactile experience for your stress toy.

3.4 Printing and Painting

While we mass-produce stress toys, certain details require hand-painting or airbrush techniques using stencils. Logos, slogans, or graphics are applied to the toy's surface using advanced printing methods such as pad printing or decals to achieve a professional, high-quality finish.

3.5 Cleaning and Quality Control

Because children's immunity is fragile, our products are cleaned before packaging for the purpose of disinfection. Then they are quality tested according to our toy quality control documents. Of course, additional pressure safety tests are also included.

3.6 Packaging

A well-designed package enhances your brand image and market appeal. Once the custom stress balls are ready, they are carefully packed and sealed in the packaging design you selected earlier. The packaged toys are then placed in shipping cartons, ready for delivery.

3.7 Delivery

With extensive experience in global logistics, we can handle the delivery of both small and bulk orders via sea freight, trucking, or express shipping. We offer a range of customizable products, including stress toys, squishy balls, realistic food toys, keychain accessories, Halloween prank toys, and more. Our logistics team works closely with partners to ensure your order is delivered on time, safely, and in perfect condition.
