OEM & Private Label · Felt Home Storage · Tianjin, China
A soft-sided laundry hamper that carries a full load by one hand, holds its shape between washes, and doubles as a toy or blanket basket when the laundry is done.
01 — WHY IT SELLS
Laundry baskets fail in predictable ways: the handles tear at the seam, the body sags into a puddle, or the whole thing is too scratchy to sit in a bedroom. Each of those is a construction question, not a styling one.
The strap is doubled over the rim and fixed with metal rivets at both ends, so the load is spread across the panel instead of tearing a single stitch line.
Thick enough to stand open when empty — the basket looks intentional on a bedroom floor rather than collapsed against the wall.
The small and medium drop inside the large one. That is a shelving advantage for the retailer and a freight advantage for the container.
No hard rim, no metal frame and no plastic liner to rattle — it can live in a nursery or a guest room without looking like a utility item.
02 — MATERIAL & CONSTRUCTION
The body is needled felt: fibre tangled into a mat rather than woven, so there is no warp or weft that can pull apart when a full hamper is dragged across a floor.
Every seam is closed with a dense zigzag stitch, and the handle ends are reinforced with metal rivets set through two layers of felt. The base is a separate panel joined at the seam line — visible in the close-up — which keeps the footprint square when the basket is loaded.
No adhesive is used at any joint. That matters in export: there is no glue line to soften in a hot container or to fail after a season in a warehouse.

04 — NESTING & OEM
The three sizes are built from the same pattern family, so the small and medium sit inside the large one. A carton therefore ships a mixed set in far less volume than three separate nests would — and a retail shelf can display the range in one footprint.
Because we needle the felt and sew the basket in-house, the shape is a variable rather than a fixed catalogue item: six body profiles and fourteen handle constructions are already tooled, including wood, PU, cord, laser-cut and stitched felt.

06 — WHERE IT LIVES
The same basket appears in laundry, pet, nursery and table-service listings. Pointing that out in the copy widens the terms a buyer might arrive on — and justifies a mixed-size order rather than a single SKU.
The photographs on this page were shot in exactly those rooms, so your listing can show the product in context without commissioning a second shoot.
Full loads carried by one hand. The 3 mm wall keeps the shape when the basket is emptied but not put away.
Toys, soft blocks and dress-up clothes. No hard rim at toddler height, and quiet when knocked over.
Toys, leads and grooming tools. Felt does not scratch a painted wall or a wooden floor.
Bread, linen and produce service — a category the large hamper size opens up with a different styling shot.
07 — HOW IT IS MADE
CAD pattern, material preparation, laser cutting, printing, processing, sewing, inspection, packing and shipment. Keeping every step in-house is what makes a custom shape and a custom colour commercially possible at 500 pieces.
08 — QUESTIONS
Yes. The strap is doubled over the rim and riveted through two layers of felt at both ends, so the load is distributed across the panel rather than concentrated on one stitch line. A damp load is the heaviest case and is the one we test against.
Yes. At 3 mm the felt is stiff enough to hold a wall without an internal board. It flexes under hand pressure and recovers; it will not stay folded flat the way a thinner 1–2 mm basket does.
Yes — the small and medium drop inside the large one. That is how they are packed, which is also why a mixed-size carton costs less to ship than three separate nests.
No, and we would rather say so plainly. Felt is absorbent, so it suits dry or damp laundry, toys and textiles — not a wet-mop bucket. For bathroom use we recommend a liner bag.
Yes. Send a Pantone reference or a physical swatch and we match against the 56-shade stock range or dye a custom lot. A lab dip is produced and must be approved in writing before bulk.
500 pieces per colour and size is the standard minimum. A smaller trial run can be discussed for a first order so you can test the shelf before committing to a full programme.
Vacuum or brush the surface. Spot-clean marks with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry fully before storing — storing damp felt will set a crease and a smell.
Yes. The studio and lifestyle files on this page are available for dealer use, and we can supply the size chart with your own unit system and language on request.

Q1: Is it easy to clean? Can we wash the fabric?
A: It’s easy to clean. You can spot wash it. Or use wet cloth to mop it. Please do not wash it by machine, or twist washing it by hand, it’ll destroy the shape
Q2: Do these stand up on their own?
A: Yes, when assembled, they stay standing on their own.
Q3:Are these made from 100% wool felt?
A: The felt is not 100% wool. It is a polyester felt. Since the felt is so thick, a 100% wool version would cost 10times more.
Q4: What should I know before using these felt baskets?
A: no machine washing, do not brush, if you found problem with pilling because of rub, no worry just use scissor to cut the pilling.
