FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

AVIP focuses on pickleball paddle OEM/ODM, wholesale supply and standard paddle models for brands, distributors, clubs and online sellers. We help customers turn product ideas into market-ready paddles with practical material suggestions, sampling support and stable production.

We mainly work with pickleball brands, sports distributors, clubs, coaches, online sellers and companies planning to launch or expand a paddle product line.

Yes. New brands are welcome. We can start with standard models, samples or a simple private-label project before moving into more complex custom development.

We focus on product understanding, material sourcing, production coordination and quality control rather than only matching buyers with products. Our goal is to help customers build better paddles with practical pricing and reliable delivery.

Yes. For serious projects, we can arrange factory visits, video calls or production discussions so you can better understand our process, materials and capabilities.

Yes. We support OEM private-label projects and ODM product development. Depending on your needs, we can help with logo, surface design, paddle shape, thickness, material selection, handle details, packaging and sample development.

Common customization options include surface material, graphic design, logo, shape, thickness, weight range, grip color, handle length, edge guard, end cap, packaging, labels and cartons.

Yes. We can discuss your target users, price range, playing style and market positioning, then recommend suitable structures and materials. For new shapes or special construction, tooling and development time may be required.

Vector files such as AI, PDF, SVG or EPS are preferred for logos and graphics. High-resolution PNG or PSD files can also help. If you only have a rough idea, we can discuss the direction first and confirm artwork requirements later.

Yes. For custom designs, brand projects or exclusive development, we can discuss confidentiality requirements and sign an NDA when needed.

MOQ depends on the model, customization level and packaging requirements. Standard models is usually 50pcs, while fully custom graphics, new shapes or special materials may require higher quantities. Contact us with your project details and we will confirm the most practical option.

Yes. We strongly recommend confirming samples before bulk production, especially for new brands, custom graphics or new material combinations.

Sample timing depends on model availability and customization complexity. Standard sample orders are usually faster, while custom artwork, new structure or special packaging will take more time.

Price is affected by material, thickness, construction method, order quantity, surface process, packaging, logo method, testing requirements and shipping terms. We will quote based on confirmed specifications instead of giving vague pricing.

Yes. Standard models are a good starting point for testing the market, launching faster or reducing development cost. They can often be adapted with your logo and packaging.

We can discuss options such as raw carbon fiber, fiberglass, graphite-style composite surfaces, polypropylene honeycomb cores, different thicknesses, edge guard styles, grip options and packaging materials.

Raw carbon fiber is often chosen for a more premium feel, stable control and spin-focused positioning. Fiberglass is commonly used for more power-oriented or cost-effective models. The best choice depends on your target users and price range.

Common paddle thickness options include thinner power-oriented structures and thicker control-oriented structures. Many modern paddles use 14mm or 16mm cores, but the right choice depends on your market, play style and product positioning.

Yes. Polypropylene honeycomb core is a common structure for modern pickleball paddles. It is widely used because it can provide a balanced combination of weight, control, comfort and durability.

We suggest choosing materials based on your target retail price, customer skill level, expected paddle feel, durability requirements and brand positioning. For example, a beginner-friendly model, a club training paddle and a premium raw carbon paddle should not use the same specification strategy.

We check key points such as material condition, surface finish, weight range, thickness, handle assembly, edge guard, printing, packaging and final appearance. The goal is to keep bulk production consistent with approved samples.

Yes. Finished paddles are checked before packing. For bulk orders, we can also discuss additional inspection requirements, photos, videos or third-party inspection support.

We confirm specifications before production, use approved samples as reference, control material batches where possible and inspect finished goods before shipment. Clear communication before production is the key to reducing mistakes.

If a quality issue is confirmed, we will review photos, videos and order details, then discuss a practical solution such as replacement, credit or support in the next order depending on the situation and agreed terms.

Yes. We can provide production updates, packing photos, shipment photos or inspection details when needed, especially for first-time orders or custom projects.

Some paddle structures or reference models may be developed with approval requirements in mind, but custom paddles should be confirmed case by case. If tournament approval is important for your market, please tell us at the start of the project.

We can support customers by preparing suitable samples and specifications, but the approval process is handled by the relevant official organization. New custom designs may need separate submission and testing.

If the paddle is intended for official tournament use, a new design, new construction or material change may require separate confirmation or submission. For casual, club or recreational markets, requirements may be different.

Yes. We can provide basic product specifications, material details and other available information needed for your internal review, marketplace listing or compliance process.

Lead time depends on order quantity, customization complexity, material availability and current production schedule. After sample approval and deposit, we will provide an estimated production timeline for your order.

Bulk production timing varies by project. Standard repeat orders are usually faster, while new graphics, packaging, special materials or peak-season orders may need more time.

Yes. Repeat orders are one of the best ways to build stable supply. We can keep confirmed specifications and help you plan reorder timing based on your sales schedule.

We can check production capacity for urgent orders, but feasibility depends on the model, quantity, materials and packaging. It is always better to plan ahead before peak season.

We can provide updates at key stages such as sample confirmation, material preparation, production, quality inspection, packing and shipment.

Yes. We can support custom packaging such as paddle covers, color boxes, hang tags, labels, instruction cards, barcode labels and carton marks depending on order quantity and project requirements.

We can discuss barcode labels, carton labels, packing requirements and FBA-style preparation if you provide the required files and instructions before production or packing.

Yes. We can ship to many countries and regions by express, air freight, sea freight or through your appointed forwarder. The best method depends on quantity, timeline and budget.

Yes. We can help coordinate shipping options or work with your own freight forwarder. For larger orders, sea freight is often more economical, while samples and urgent orders are usually shipped by express or air.

Please contact us with photos, videos and package details as soon as possible. We will help check whether the issue is related to production, packing or transportation and discuss the next step based on the order terms.
