Dongguan Hwd Acrylic Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Dongguan HWD Acrylic Co., Ltd. is a China-based acrylic product supplier located in Guangdong, with a reported factory area of 2,200+㎡ and 20+ staff. The supplier focuses on acrylic board game products, including acrylic chess sets, backgammon sets, and acrylic Connect Four strategy games, with MOQ levels ranging from 50 to 500 pieces depending on the product. The company shows credible platform backing through 9 years as an Gold Supplier, Trade Assurance support, verified supplier status, and labels such as Finished Product Inspection and ODM service availability. Its recent business performance shows 30+ orders and CN¥608.5K+ transaction value over the past six months, indicating moderate commercial activity. However, the review base is limited at only 5 reviews, and response time is reported as within 11 hours rather than within 1 hour. Overall, this supplier appears suitable for buyers seeking small-to-medium batch customized acrylic game products, while quality validation should be strengthened before large-scale procurement.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength

Basis
- Factory area: 2,200+㎡
- Employees: 20+ staff
- Verified supplier: True
- Factory location: Guangdong, China

Elaboration
Dongguan HWD Acrylic Co., Ltd. has a modest but defined production base, with over 2,200 square meters of factory space and more than 20 employees. This indicates the company has basic in-house production capacity rather than operating only as a trading intermediary. The verified supplier status further supports the credibility of its operational presence.

However, based on the available data, the company does not demonstrate large-scale manufacturing capacity. The factory size and workforce suggest a small-to-medium production setup, more suitable for customized acrylic products and moderate order volumes than highly large-scale mass production.

Scoring Rationale
The company has sufficient basic production infrastructure, including a physical factory area, staff count, and verified supplier status. These factors support a stable but relatively limited manufacturing capability. Because the factory scale and employee count are not large, it does not qualify as a large-scale stable supply chain provider. The available data best matches the category of a smaller supplier with foundational production capability.

Final Score: 13 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility

Basis
- Gold Supplier: True
- Gold Supplier duration: 9 years
- Trade Assurance: True
- Verified supplier: True
- Certification / industry labels: Low MOQ for customization, Finished Product Inspection, ODM service available

Elaboration
The supplier has a relatively strong platform credibility profile. A 9-year Gold Supplier history indicates long-term platform participation. Trade Assurance support also provides buyers with an additional transaction protection mechanism. The verified supplier status adds credibility to the company’s platform presence.

The available certification and industry labels are commercially relevant, especially Finished Product Inspection and ODM service availability. These labels suggest the supplier has at least some platform-recognized service and quality control capabilities. However, no additional formal factory management certifications, such as ISO or other third-party system certifications, are provided in the dataset.

Scoring Rationale
The supplier has strong platform indicators: long Gold Supplier tenure, Trade Assurance, verified supplier status, and relevant service/inspection labels. This creates a relatively complete platform credibility structure. The absence of additional disclosed formal factory certifications prevents a perfect score, but the platform compliance profile is clearly above average and long-standing.

Final Score: 18 / 20

3. Business Performance

Basis
- Orders in past 6 months: 30+
- Transaction value in past 6 months: CN¥608.5K+
- Store rating: 4.7
- Number of reviews: 5

Elaboration
The supplier has recorded more than 30 orders and over CN¥608.5K in transaction value during the past six months. This reflects active commercial transactions and some degree of buyer acceptance. The store rating of 4.7 is positive and indicates generally favorable customer satisfaction among recorded buyers.

However, the number of reviews is only 5, which limits the reliability of the rating as a broad market validation signal. The order volume is moderate rather than high, and the review count is not sufficient to confirm consistently strong performance across a large customer base.

Scoring Rationale
The supplier demonstrates real and recent transaction activity, with a moderate order count and transaction value. The 4.7 rating is favorable, but the very limited review base weakens confidence in the performance data. Therefore, the supplier should be viewed as commercially active but not yet strongly validated by a large number of buyers.

Final Score: 15 / 20

4. Service Capability

Basis
- Communication response time: ≤11h
- Customization-related label: Low MOQ for customization
- ODM service available

Elaboration
The supplier offers customization-related capabilities, as reflected by the “Low MOQ for customization” and “ODM service available” labels. This is relevant for buyers seeking branded or customized acrylic game products. Product listings also include custom logo and personalized acrylic product descriptions, which are consistent with a customization-oriented offering.

The response time of ≤11 hours is acceptable but not fast enough to be considered highly responsive under the scoring standard. There is no provided data confirming Full Customization specifically, so this item must be treated as Insufficient Data.

Scoring Rationale
The supplier shows clear signs of customization capability through ODM availability and low MOQ customization labels. However, response time is not within the top service tier, and Full Customization is not explicitly confirmed in the provided data. As a result, the service capability is reasonable but not premium.

Final Score: 7 / 10

5. Delivery Performance

Basis
- On-time delivery rate: 83.3%

Elaboration
The supplier’s reported on-time delivery rate is 83.3%. This places the supplier within the 80–89% delivery performance range. The result suggests that the company can complete most shipments on time, but there is still measurable delivery risk compared with suppliers achieving over 90%.

For buyers with strict launch schedules, promotional timelines, or seasonal inventory requirements, this delivery performance should be monitored carefully through confirmed production lead times and written delivery commitments.

Scoring Rationale
According to the scoring standard, an on-time delivery rate of 80–89% corresponds to 7–8 points. At 83.3%, the supplier sits in the lower-to-middle part of that range. This supports a fair score of 7 rather than a higher score.

Final Score: 7 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback

Basis
- Store rating: 4.7
- Reviews: 5
- Finished Product Inspection: Present
- Verified supplier: True

Elaboration
The supplier has a store rating of 4.7, which is a positive indicator of buyer satisfaction. The presence of Finished Product Inspection is also relevant because it suggests that inspection is part of the supplier’s quality-related platform profile. Verified supplier status further supports baseline credibility.

However, the review count is only 5, which is too limited to provide strong statistical confidence in customer feedback. No additional detailed defect rate, inspection report, return rate, or formal quality management certification is provided. Therefore, while the supplier shows positive quality indicators, the available feedback base remains limited.

Scoring Rationale
The quality profile is supported by a good rating, finished product inspection label, and verified supplier status. Nevertheless, the low number of reviews significantly limits confidence in long-term quality consistency. The supplier fits better into the “good rating with basic quality assurance” range than the highest category requiring high rating, large review volume, and comprehensive quality systems.

Final Score: 15 / 20

Total Score

75 / 100

Procurement Recommendation

Dongguan HWD Acrylic Co., Ltd. is recommended for conditional cooperation, especially for buyers seeking customized acrylic board games, acrylic chess sets, backgammon sets, and moderate-volume ODM-style acrylic products. The supplier has strong platform credibility, a verified supplier profile, Trade Assurance support, Finished Product Inspection, and a 9-year Gold Supplier history.

The main risks are limited factory scale, only 20+ staff, a small review base of 5 reviews, and an on-time delivery rate of 83.3%, which indicates some delivery reliability risk. Before placing large or time-sensitive orders, buyers should request samples, confirm inspection standards, clarify lead times, and use Trade Assurance for transaction protection.

Overall, this supplier is suitable for small-to-medium procurement programs and customized acrylic game product buyers, with growth potential if it improves delivery consistency and accumulates more verified customer feedback.
