Changshu Xingyan Interlining Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Changshu Xingyan Interlining Co., Ltd. is a China-based supplier located in Jiangsu, with a reported factory area of 2,400+ m² and 20+ staff. The company appears to be a small-to-mid-sized production supplier focused on interlining, embroidery stabilizer, adhesive backing, and related textile auxiliary materials, with relatively low MOQs across listed products. Its platform credibility is comparatively strong, supported by 11 years as a Gold Supplier, Trade Assurance availability, and verified supplier status. Recent business performance shows 100+ orders and CN¥540.9K+ transaction value over the past six months, indicating active commercial traction, though review volume remains moderate at 20+. Service responsiveness is acceptable at ≤4 hours, but Full Customization capability is not confirmed. Delivery performance is moderate with an 87.5% on-time shipment rate. Overall, this supplier is suitable for buyers seeking established platform-backed sourcing for small to medium-volume textile interlining or stabilizer products, while larger buyers should further verify production capacity, quality control processes, and delivery stability before scaling orders.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength — 20 Points

Basis

• Company: Changshu Xingyan Interlining Co., Ltd.
• Location: Jiangsu, China
• Factory area: 2,400+ m²
• Employees: 20+ staff
• Verified supplier / factory audit status: True
• Product scope shown: interlining, adhesive nonwoven web, washaway stabilizer backing, tearaway embroidery stabilizer, rolls and related textile auxiliary products.

Elaboration

The supplier has a declared factory area of over 2,400 m² and more than 20 employees. This indicates that the company has a physical production base and a basic operational team, but the available scale data does not support classification as a large-scale manufacturer. The employee count is relatively limited, suggesting that production capacity may be more suitable for small to medium-volume orders rather than very large-volume or highly complex programs.

The presence of verified supplier status strengthens the credibility of the company’s operational existence and basic factory profile. However, the data does not provide detailed information on production lines, monthly capacity, machinery, internal QC staffing, warehouse capacity, or factory management certifications. Therefore, while the supplier demonstrates basic manufacturing capability, the depth and scalability of its production system cannot be fully confirmed from the provided data.

Scoring Rationale

The company has a confirmed factory footprint and staff base, which supports a baseline level of production capability. The factory area of 2,400+ m² is meaningful for a specialized textile auxiliary materials supplier, but the 20+ staff count indicates a relatively lean operation. Verified supplier status improves confidence, but the absence of detailed production capacity data limits the assessment. Based on the scoring standard, this fits best within the “small but with basic production capability” range, with some positive adjustment due to verified supplier status.

Final Score

12 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility — 20 Points

Basis

• Gold Supplier: True
• Gold Supplier duration: 11 years
• Trade Assurance: True
• Verified supplier / factory audit status: True
• Platform/industry tags:
• “Low MOQ for customization”
• “Response time ≤4h”
• “On-time delivery 87.5%”

Elaboration

The supplier has a strong platform history, with 11 years as a Gold Supplier. This is a significant credibility indicator within the provided platform context, as it reflects long-term platform presence. Trade Assurance is also available, which provides buyers with an added transaction protection mechanism on the platform.

The verified supplier/factory audit status further supports credibility. The available certification or platform tags focus mainly on customization MOQ, response time, and delivery rate. However, the data does not include additional third-party product certifications, management system certifications, or industry-specific compliance certificates. Therefore, the platform credibility is strong, while the broader compliance certification picture remains incomplete.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier performs well in the key platform credibility indicators: long Gold Supplier tenure, Trade Assurance support, and verified supplier status. These are meaningful credibility elements for procurement screening. The main limitation is that certification data beyond platform tags is not provided, so the score should not assume a complete compliance system. Given the 11-year Gold Supplier history and Trade Assurance support, the supplier falls close to the high-confidence range.

Final Score

18 / 20

3. Business Performance — 20 Points

Basis

• Orders in past 6 months: 100+
• Transaction value in past 6 months: CN¥540.9K+
• Store rating: 4.6
• Number of reviews: 20+

Elaboration

The supplier has generated more than 100 orders in the past six months, with transaction value exceeding CN¥540.9K. This indicates active market demand and a certain level of repeat or ongoing buyer activity. The transaction amount suggests a commercially active supplier, though not necessarily a very large-volume trading operation based solely on the provided figures.

The store rating of 4.6 is generally positive, but the review count of 20+ is relatively moderate. This means the rating is useful but not yet supported by a large review base. The combination of order volume and transaction value shows that the supplier has market validation, but the limited review quantity prevents the supplier from being classified as highly proven in customer feedback terms.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier demonstrates stable business activity with 100+ recent orders and CN¥540.9K+ transaction value, which is a positive indicator for commercial reliability. The 4.6 rating is acceptable to good, but the review count is not high enough to fully confirm broad buyer satisfaction. This places the supplier in the stable medium-scale transaction range rather than the highest performance tier.

Final Score

15 / 20

4. Service Capability — 10 Points

Basis

• Communication response time: ≤4 hours
• Platform tag: “Low MOQ for customization”
• Full Customization capability: Insufficient Data

Elaboration

The supplier’s response time is listed as ≤4 hours, which indicates acceptable communication responsiveness, though it does not meet the strongest benchmark of ≤1 hour. The platform tag “Low MOQ for customization” suggests that the supplier may support some customization at relatively low order thresholds. However, the provided data does not explicitly confirm Full Customization capability.

As a result, the supplier appears suitable for buyers who require routine communication and potentially basic customization or low-MOQ customized arrangements. For projects requiring complex product development, advanced technical customization, or highly structured OEM/ODM support, additional confirmation would be necessary.

Scoring Rationale

The response speed is reasonable and supports normal procurement communication. The “Low MOQ for customization” tag is a positive service indicator, but since Full Customization is not confirmed, the supplier cannot be scored in the highest service range. The supplier fits the “normal response and basic customization capability” level based on available data.

Final Score

7 / 10

5. Delivery Performance — 10 Points

Basis

• On-time delivery rate: 87.5%

Elaboration

The supplier’s reported on-time delivery rate is 87.5%. This falls within the 80%–89% range, indicating moderate delivery reliability. The supplier is not at the strongest delivery performance level, which would require an on-time rate above 90%, but the figure still suggests that the majority of orders are shipped on time.

For buyers with flexible delivery windows, this performance may be acceptable. However, buyers with strict launch schedules, seasonal purchasing needs, or time-sensitive replenishment requirements should monitor delivery commitments closely and may need to negotiate clear shipment timelines before placing larger orders.

Scoring Rationale

According to the stated scoring standard, an on-time shipment rate between 80% and 89% corresponds to 7–8 points. At 87.5%, the supplier is near the upper end of this range, but still below the 90% threshold required for a top-tier delivery score. Therefore, the appropriate score is high within the medium delivery-performance band.

Final Score

8 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback — 20 Points

Basis

• Store rating: 4.6
• Review count: 20+
• Verified supplier / factory audit status: True
• Finished Product Inspection: Insufficient Data
• Factory Verification: Supported by provided verified supplier/factory audit status
• Product quality certifications: Insufficient Data

Elaboration

The supplier’s store rating of 4.6 indicates generally positive buyer feedback. However, the review count of 20+ is moderate, meaning the feedback base is not large enough to fully validate consistent quality performance across a broad customer group. The verified supplier/factory audit status provides some additional assurance regarding the company’s operational legitimacy.

There is no provided confirmation of Finished Product Inspection. There is also no information on formal quality certifications, inspection procedures, defect rates, testing standards, or quality control workflow. Therefore, while the available platform feedback is positive, the quality assurance system cannot be considered fully transparent based on the provided data.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier has a good store rating and verified status, which support a reasonable quality confidence level. However, the moderate number of reviews and lack of confirmed Finished Product Inspection prevent a higher score. The data supports a conclusion of acceptable baseline quality credibility, but not a fully proven or highly documented quality assurance system.

Final Score

14 / 20

Procurement Recommendation

Recommendation: Conditional Cooperation Recommended

Changshu Xingyan Interlining Co., Ltd. is recommended for conditional cooperation, especially for buyers sourcing interlining, adhesive backing, embroidery stabilizer, and related textile auxiliary products at small to medium order volumes. The supplier shows strong platform credibility, with 11 years as an Gold Supplier, Trade Assurance support, and verified supplier status. Its recent 100+ orders and CN¥540.9K+ transaction value over the past six months indicate real commercial activity.

Suitable customer types:
- Small and medium-sized garment accessory buyers
- Embroidery material distributors or wholesalers
- Buyers requiring relatively low MOQ sourcing
- Procurement teams seeking -backed transaction protection
- Customers with moderate delivery flexibility

Main risk points:
- Production scale appears limited based on 2,400+ m² factory area and 20+ staff
- Full Customization capability is not confirmed
- Finished Product Inspection information is not provided
- Review count is moderate at 20+, so customer feedback depth is limited
- On-time delivery rate of 87.5% is acceptable but below top-tier performance

Growth potential:
The supplier has a solid platform history and active transaction record, which provide a good foundation for continued growth. If the company can improve delivery consistency above 90%, provide clearer quality inspection information, and disclose stronger production capacity or customization capabilities, its suitability for larger or more demanding procurement programs would improve.
