Home / About

A quiet kind of industry,
since 2008.

Eighteen years of pressing, weaving, knitting and molding the unglamorous tools that keep the world's kitchens, hospitals, hotels and households spotless.

№ 02 — The House

Not a trading desk.
A real factory.

We make things that disappear into routine: the sponge that lives next to a sink in Frankfurt, the microfiber that wipes a windshield in Lagos, the mop that sweeps a hotel lobby in São Paulo before sunrise. The customer never thinks of the factory. That is, in our view, the highest compliment a manufacturer can earn.

Suzhou Kare Houseware is an independent, family-run manufacturer — not a trading company with a rented showroom. We own the looms, the extrusion lines, the molds, the laboratory and the bonded warehouse.

Vertical integration is unfashionable until the moment your container slips a port — and then it is the only thing that matters.

Eight lines, one discipline

Across eight specialised production lines we run a single method: quote honestly, sample fast, and ship on the date written in the proforma. Eighteen years on, that remains the entire strategy — and the reason our first customers are still our customers.

Built for the way you buy

Everything here is built for the people who place orders: distributors, importers, retail-chain buyers and brand owners. Clear pricing, real lead times, certificates you can verify, and a sales team that answers within one business day.
