400ML Kids Mug Product Specification & Ordering Guide

1. Key Features

The 400ML Kids Mug is precision-engineered for safety, durability, and thermal performance, making it the ideal choice for children’s daily hydration needs.

• Premium Dual-Layer Stainless Steel Construction: Features high-grade inner liner 316 stainless steel for exceptional corrosion resistance and durability, paired with a 201 stainless steel outer shell that provides structural strength while maintaining an affordable price point . The double-wall structure creates a vacuum insulation layer that effectively eliminates heat transfer.

• Advanced Vacuum Insulation Technology: The vacuum-sealed gap between the inner and outer walls ensures superior temperature retention, keeping drinks at the desired temperature for hours while ensuring the exterior remains comfortable to touch without condensation .

• Child-Safe Material Selection: All plastic components, including the lid and straw, are manufactured using food-grade PP (Polypropylene) und medical-grade silicone. These materials are rigorously tested to be 100% BPA-frei, ensuring zero harmful chemical leaching into your child’s beverages .

• Leak-Proof Lid System: The precision-engineered lid and silicone straw assembly creates a complete seal that prevents spills and leaks, even when the mug is tossed into a backpack or shaken during travel .

• Compact and Lightweight Design: With dimensions of 11.5×8×19.7 CM and a net weight of only 310 grams, this mug is perfectly sized for small hands and lightweight enough for children to carry comfortably throughout the day.

• Global Safety Compliance: Designed and manufactured to meet stringent international food contact safety standards, fully supporting FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) und EU food contact material regulations with comprehensive test reports available .

• Mass Production Capability: With a Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) of 3,000 pieces, this product is optimized for brand owners and distributors seeking reliable, large-scale production capacity.

• Efficient Production Timeline: Streamlined manufacturing processes ensure a standard production lead time of 40 days, allowing for predictable inventory planning and market launch scheduling.

• Full Customization Support: Offers complete surface treatment, logo application, and印花 (printing) customization options to align with your brand identity and market positioning.

2. Product Benefits

Choosing the 400ML Kids Mug translates technical specifications into tangible advantages for brands, retailers, and end-users alike.

• Superior Health Protection for Children: The combination of 316 stainless steel (known for its high nickel and chromium content, offering enhanced resistance to corrosion and acidic beverages) and BPA-Free PP/silicone components means parents can trust that their children are drinking from a safe, non-toxic container. This medical-grade inner liner is particularly important for children’s developing immune systems .

• Extended Temperature Retention: The vacuum insulation technology actively maintains beverage temperatures—keeping drinks cold for up to 12+ hours and warm for 6+ hours. This means a child’s milk stays fresh and cool until lunchtime, or hot chocolate remains warm during a winter morning commute .

• No More Spills or Accidents: The leak-proof lid system eliminates the frustration of juice spills in backpacks or on car seats. The secure seal provides peace of mind for parents while encouraging children to become more independent in handling their own belongings .

• Perfect Ergonomics for Children: Weighing just 310 grams with a grip-friendly 8 CM width, the mug is ergonomically designed for small hands to hold, lift, and drink from comfortably. This encourages self-feeding habits and reduces the likelihood of drops.

• Condensation-Free Exterior: The double-wall vacuum technology ensures the outer surface remains dry and sweat-free, even with ice-cold drinks. This prevents slippery hands and messy tabletops, keeping children and their surroundings dry .

• Durability That Lasts: The combination of a strong 201 stainless steel outer shell and a corrosion-resistant 316 inner liner creates a mug that withstands the rough and tumble of daily childhood use—drops, throws, and constant handling—without denting easily or degrading internally.

• Brand-Building Potential: The comprehensive customization options allow you to transform this functional item into a powerful marketing tool. Your logo, mascot, or design becomes a daily presence in a family’s life, building brand recognition and loyalty .

• Regulatory Confidence: Full compliance with FDA and EU standards, backed by verifiable test reports, simplifies your market entry process. It eliminates the guesswork and risk associated with international product safety certifications, protecting your brand reputation .

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Q1: What is the MOQ for this Kids Mug and why is it set at 3000 pieces?
  A: The MOQ is 3,000 pieces. This quantity is standard for our vacuum-insulated stainless steel production lines as it allows for efficient setup of the specialized manufacturing equipment, bulk material procurement (especially for the dual stainless steel grades), and cost-effective customization processes like spray painting and印花 (printing). It ensures we can offer you competitive pricing while maintaining the highest quality standards .

• Q2: Can you explain the difference between the inner 316 and outer 201 stainless steel?
  A: Certainly. The inner liner is made of 316 stainless steel, which contains molybdenum, giving it superior resistance to corrosion and acidic drinks (like fruit juices). This ensures the beverage’s taste is not affected and the liner lasts longer. The outer shell is 201 stainless steel, which is chosen for its strength, durability, and ability to hold color finishes well, providing excellent protection for the inner liner at a more accessible cost point.

• Q3: What specific certifications do you provide to prove the product is BPA-Free and safe for children?
  A: We provide comprehensive test reports from accredited laboratories. These reports specifically certify that all food-contact materials (inner liner, PP lid, and silicone straw) are BPA-frei. Furthermore, we provide documentation supporting compliance with FDA (U.S. Food Contact Notification) and EU (EFSA) regulations, confirming the product meets the strictest global safety standards .

• Q4: How long does the vacuum insulation actually last?
  A: The insulation performance is rated for the product’s lifetime under normal use. Specifically, in terms of temperature retention, the mug is tested to keep liquids cold for 12+ hours und hot for 6+ hours . This performance is achieved by the permanent vacuum seal between the double walls.

• Q5: The dimensions are given. Is this mug dishwasher safe?
  A: While the stainless steel body is durable, we recommend hand washing the mug and all its components (lid and straw) to preserve the integrity of the印花 (printing), the vacuum seal’s longevity, and the silicone/plastic parts over time. Harsh dishwasher detergents and high heat can degrade custom prints and the flexibility of silicone seals.

• Q6: What is included in the 40-day production lead time?
  A: Die 40-day lead time includes the period from the moment we receive your deposit and final approval of specifications (including artwork for logos) to the completion of finished goods ready for packaging and inspection. It encompasses material procurement, component manufacturing, assembly, printing/finishing, and initial quality control checks. This timeline does not include shipping transit time .
