  "body": "Pick the posture first, then the structure\n\nFlat boards sit by sofas; oval / runway shapes suit large cats that stretch; houses and tray bases suit multi-cat homes. Lock one or two hero structures before opening extra dies — tooling, cartons and container math all get slower if you launch every silhouette at once.\n\nAsk for density and glue, not the word “thick”\n\nThe live Koorpet catalogue uses multi-layer corrugated structures. Inspect cut delamination, corner debris and surface fuzz with an agreed method; do not publish a fixed dust-reduction percentage without a like-for-like test report.\n\nReplaceable cores are the reorder engine\n\nKP-16 (board with base) plus KP-17 (refill) is a durable + consumable pair. Brands can recolour or private-label the core only and amortise the tray tool. Quote bases and refills as separate lines — never as a vague “set”.\n\nMOQ and container planning\n\nReference MOQ is 100, 1,000 or 3,000 pcs depending on the model. Mixed SKUs, packaging and customization are negotiable if each quantity is on the RFQ. Use the spec table (size / weight) to plan 20GP / 40HQ yourself. Unit price, FOB or DDP is confirmed on the RFQ only — this site publishes no list prices.\n\nHow sampling should run\n\nSample one or two handles, sign flute direction, print and carton marks, then scale. New dies or size changes add a sample cycle. Plan about 30 days from signed sample to bulk on standard corrugated (peak season in writing from sales).\n\nFAQ\n\nIs the reference MOQ negotiable?\n\nCatalogue reference is 100, 1,000 or 3,000 pcs by model. Trial, mixed or customized first orders: put the target qty on the RFQ and sales will answer against the line schedule.\n\nHow do we keep bulk as firm as the sample?\n\nPhotograph cut density and note grammage on the signed sample. Bulk uses the same paper and glue lot; flute and press settings are locked to that sample.",
