Panty Liners Manufacturer for OEM and Private Label Programs
Nafei has produced feminine hygiene products in Guangdong since 1998. We make 155 mm panty liners in ultra-thin, cotton-soft, organic cotton, bamboo fibre and biodegradable PLA builds, supplied to brands, importers and distributors as OEM or private label programs.
A panty liner specification is not a small pad specification
Most liner programs fail on the details a buyer did not think to write down: cover feel, adhesive position, wrapper format and pack count. These are the fields we settle before a sample is built.
Liner types in production
The builds below already run in our liners and pad lines. A liner project usually picks one hero build and one or two variants rather than a full matrix.
Ultra-thin daily liner
The volume SKU for daily freshness. Thin profile, light absorbency, low unit cost. This is the build most private label ranges start with.
Cotton-soft and organic cotton
Soft nonwoven or organic cotton cover for brands selling comfort and material transparency. Material documentation matters more here than thickness.
Bamboo fibre liner
Bamboo-fibre cover positioned on breathability and comfort. Popular in markets where natural-fibre messaging sells.
PLA biodegradable liner
Starch-based PLA components for brands making a sustainability claim. Confirm what the claim actually covers before printing it on pack.
Anion liner
Anion chip construction used in several Asian markets. Market-specific positioning; check local claim rules before launch.
Herbal cooling liner
Cooling or herbal finish for hot-climate markets and summer lines. Sensory positioning rather than absorbency positioning.
Teen and small-size liner
Narrower construction and softer cover for teen ranges. Often paired with a discreet pack format.
Leak-guard liner
Extended coverage at the back for light-flow days, positioned between a daily liner and a day pad.
Why liners are built differently from pads
A buyer who sources pads and liners from the same factory often assumes the liner is the same product at a shorter length. That assumption causes most of the complaints in this category.
A day pad is judged on absorbency and leakage. A panty liner is judged on three different things: how the surface feels after two hours of wear, whether it stays where it was placed, and whether the wrapper opens cleanly. Absorbency is almost secondary — a liner that absorbs well but feels damp or shifts forward has failed the job it was bought for.
That changes the engineering priorities. The adhesive pattern matters more than the core. The cover material matters more than the absorbency grade. A breathable backsheet can be more valuable than extra SAP, because the liner sits against the body for longer than a pad does on a light day.
This is also why we ask for a physical reference sample when a buyer is switching suppliers. Photographs and spec sheets do not show adhesive tack, cover hand-feel or wrapper tear behaviour. Matching those three is the real work of a liner transfer.
Private label and packaging
Private label liners are usually where the brand differentiates, because the product itself is hard to tell apart on a shelf.
Artwork and print
Bag artwork, colour separations and print proofing handled against your supplied files or developed with our packaging support.
Bag format
Film bag, stand-up pouch or box format. Bag style changes filling cost and shelf presence more than most buyers expect.
Carton and marks
Carton count, shipping marks and barcode placement planned for the destination market and channel.
Compliance wording
Product claims reviewed against the target market before print. Claims that cannot be supported are flagged rather than printed.
Production base and quality systems
Liner programs are run on the same site and the same quality system as our pad and menstrual pants lines.
Since 1998
Feminine hygiene manufacturing in Guangdong, supplying brand and importer programs across multiple markets.
260,000+ m²
Manufacturing space with purified workshop management supporting bulk order delivery.
35+ production lines
Line allocation is confirmed against the project scope rather than assumed from a catalogue.
ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001
Quality, environmental and occupational safety systems, plus GMP production management.
In-process checks
Absorption, rewet, adhesive peel and packaging seal checks at defined points on the line.
Finished goods review
Finished product photographs and packing details shared before shipment so the buyer sees the batch, not just the report.
Certificates and current scope documents are shared during the buyer review stage rather than published as image files, because scope and validity change and a screenshot cannot be verified.
How a liner project runs
Ordering notes buyers ask about first
We deliberately do not publish a single headline MOQ or price, because both move with the specification and both are quoted per project.
- MOQ: confirmed against the liner build, pack count and packaging format. A standard ultra-thin liner in a stock bag and a custom printed stand-up pouch are different minimums.
- Price: quoted per piece against a confirmed specification. Cover material, core build, wrapper and pack count each move the number.
- Samples: developed against your brief. Where you are matching an existing product, send a physical reference — it shortens the loop significantly.
- Lead time: confirmed at quotation and depends on line scheduling and packaging production, not on the liner itself.
- Export: carton marks, shipping documents and packing lists prepared for the destination market.
Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order for private label panty liners?
It depends on the liner build and the packaging. Stock bag programs and custom printed packaging carry different minimums, so we quote after the specification is confirmed rather than publishing a single figure that would be wrong for most projects.
Can you match the liner we currently buy?
Usually yes, if you send a physical sample. Length, cover, core build, adhesive pattern and wrapper are all measurable from a reference piece. Spec sheets alone rarely carry the adhesive and hand-feel details that determine whether a match feels right.
What is the difference between a panty liner and a sanitary pad?
A liner handles daily freshness and light discharge; a pad handles menstrual flow. A liner is thinner, shorter and lightly absorbent, and it is judged on comfort and staying in place rather than on capacity.
Which materials can the cover use?
Nonwoven, cotton-soft nonwoven, organic cotton and bamboo fibre are the common options. Biodegradable PLA builds are available where the sustainability claim can be supported by the actual component set.
Can we print our own brand on the wrapper?
Yes. Wrapper and bag print are part of the private label scope. We review the artwork and the claim wording before production, and flag anything the target market would not accept.
Do you supply liners without a brand program?
Yes. Wholesale supply in stock packaging is available for importers and distributors who are testing the category before committing to a private label program.
Send a liner brief
The fastest quotation comes from four lines: liner type, target market, pack count and estimated quantity. If you have a reference sample or existing artwork, mention it and we will tell you what else the sample needs to cover.
