The YAMEI Process

Two Clear Routes from Requirements to Production

Choose a small-batch semi-custom route based on suitable existing components, or a fully custom route for exclusive structures and new tooling.

Perfume bottle and packaging development workspace

Route One

Small-Batch Semi-Custom Route

For emerging brands, this route evaluates suitable existing bottle and packaging foundations before confirming the brand-specific processes.

  1. 01

    Share your bottle, packaging, quantity, market, and timing requirements

  2. 02

    Review quantity and feasibility

  3. 03

    Select suitable existing components

  4. 04

    Confirm decoration and packaging

  5. 05

    Complete sampling or pre-production confirmation

  6. 06

    Coordinate approved production steps

  7. 07

    Complete inspection and delivery preparation

Route Two

Fully Custom Development Route

For exclusive structures, YAMEI reviews the available technical information, tooling requirements, sample process, and practical production quantity.

  1. 01

    Submit a design, drawing, 3D file, or physical sample

  2. 02

    Complete technical review

  3. 03

    Evaluate quantity and tooling requirements

  4. 04

    Develop the mold where approved

  5. 05

    Complete sampling and approval

  6. 06

    Proceed with approved mass production

  7. 07

    Complete inspection and delivery preparation

Project Confirmation

Commercial details follow technical review

Feasibility, samples, MOQ, price, and production timing follow the reviewed specification.

Lead time is quoted case by case after the bottle, decoration, packaging, and quantity are confirmed. YAMEI does not guarantee a fixed development or delivery date before this review is complete.

Project Examples

How the routes work in practice

Three completed YAMEI projects, showing the constraint that appeared and the specification that made the first run possible.

United States · 500 sets

A first production run in warm ivory glass with a weighted gold cap and a rigid gift box.

The constraint
The cap in the original design required a new metal mold, with a production minimum well above the planned launch quantity.
What was produced
The design proportions were kept, but the first run used an existing 50ml bottle with ivory coating, a warm grey silk-screened logo, and an existing weighted cap refinished in brushed gold, with a paper-wrapped rigid box and a fitted inner tray. The launch went ahead without paying for cap tooling, and the exclusive cap was kept for a second phase.

United Arab Emirates · 1,000 sets

A clear rectangular bottle with a deep burgundy gradient, gold decoration, and a book-style box.

The constraint
Holding the gradient start and end positions consistently across the front and the sides of the bottle.
What was produced
Several coating-range samples were produced first to agree an acceptable colour band. Final inspection covered gradient position, logo registration, cap fit, and inner-tray clearance. Components were consolidated, packed as complete sets, and shipped to Dubai.

Australia · 300 sets

A limited series of 300 miniature fragrance sets.

The constraint
The sculpted magnetic cap in the initial concept could not be produced economically at that quantity.
What was produced
An existing small cap with an added soft-touch finish replaced it, and the saved development budget went into a double-door box and a molded pulp inner tray. The revised specification kept the intended opening experience while matching the customer first-run quantity.
