What Is The Price for Purchasing Yeti Style 20 oz Tumblers Cups In Bulk?

Yeti 20oz Tumbler Manufacturing Cost Analysis

How We Offer Premium Yeti-Style Tumblers at $1.89 – $3.00(and even possibly lower for bulk orders)?

When you see a branded glassware priced between 35 and 79 US dollars, the amount you pay actually includes marketing, brand promotion, and the profits of the middlemen. However, we have eliminated these unnecessary costs while maintaining the high quality of the core product (material, production process, quality assurance). Here is a detailed explanation of all the contents included in our competitive wholesale prices:

1. Material Costs (account for about 45% to 50% of the total cost):

• We use the same core materials as the premium brand: food grade 18/8 stainless steel(or SUS316) for the body and high-quality BPA-free plastic for lids.
• 18/8 (SUS304) and SUS316 Food-grade stainless steel: Our general price for purchasing stainless steel is: 18/8 Stainless steel costs $0.005/g; 316 Stainless steel costs $0.006/g.
• BPA-Free lid material: We use highly transparent AS or Eastman Tritan™ materials. We strictly use raw materials instead of recycled materials to ensure that the lid does not produce any unpleasant odors or break easily when placed in boiling water at 100°C. Polypropylene costs $0.002/g; AS costs $0.0025/g; TRITAN costs $0.005/g.
• Note: products with surprising low unit price(e.g., lower than $1.00 for small-batch orders or $0.50 for bulk orders) on the market often secretly use 201 stainless steel or poorly recycled materials, which can lead to a 60% or more decrease in corrosion resistance and cannot pass FDA or other food safety tests.

2. Production & Craftsmanship (account for about 25% to 30% of the total cost):

• Advanced CNC machining technique: Our tumblers are created using precision welding and forming techniques.
• High vacuum pumping process: Each cup we produce undergo 4-6 hours of high-temperature pumping in a vacuum furnace.
• Copper plating: We also implement an additional technique called “copper plating process” – adding a 0.02mm copper layer on the inner wall of the vacuum layer, which can improve the insulation performance by 15-20%.
• Electrolytic polishing of inner walls: Unlike simple mechanical grinding, our inner walls employ electrochemical polishing technology to achieve a mirror-like surface roughness of Ra<0.4 μm, effectively preventing the formation of tea stains and bacterial adhesion.
  Note: All our production process and technique level are identical to the high-standard process used by leading brands. Read more in KingStar’s Manufacturing Process.

3. The Brand Premium (Which You Don’t Need to Pay For):

This is the most crucial part of cost savings. When you purchase factory-direct products from us, you don’t have to bear the huge marketing expenses of the brand, the fees for celebrity endorsements, or the operational costs of the enterprise. Our focus is entirely on the purchase of raw materials, the optimization of production technology, and strict quality management, and we deliver the finished products directly to you without any middlemen.

4. Surface Treatment & Customization (account for about 10% to 15% of the total cost):

Through comprehensive customization options, we can transform the high-quality YETI 20-ounce insulated cup into a powerful brand asset for you. We offer a wide range of personalized services, including precise laser engraving or full-color printing of your logo, using the Pantone Matching System (PMS) to ensure perfect color accuracy. You can also choose from various practical lids (such as straw lids, flip covers, or handle covers), and select unique coatings and surface treatments to create a one-of-a-kind product. This enables you to provide a high-quality insulated thermos with your brand logo, standing out in the market.

• Base cost: The cost of automatic assembly line painting is relatively low.
• Value-added services: If you choose “Duracoat Powder Coating”, the unit price will increase by approximately $0.20 – $0.40. However, this process can be achieved through 500 “dishwasher-applicable” tests, and it adds an elegant, matte finish and texture to the cup body, which is the key to enhancing the brand’s premium value.
• Logo Customization: Laser marking or laser engraving for large orders incurs almost no additional cost for consumables. While more complex techniques such as 3D printing, although more expensive (each costing an additional $0.50+), offers a tactile and luxurious effect, more suitable for building a premium and high profile brand image.

Custom Finishing

5. Quality Control and Loss Detection (accounting for approximately 5%)

Each batch of products undergoes strict inspections to ensure that each item complies with rigorous Industry Standards

• Full inspection control: We do not conduct random inspections but perform 100% inspection (full inspection). This includes: 3 vacuum degree tests (after welding, after spraying, and before packaging), 24-hour salt spray rust prevention test, and seal pressure test for the lid. Although this increases the labor cost by approximately 5%, it can control the defective rate within 0.3%, preventing costly rework or material waste.

6. Logistics and Packaging Optimization (the proportion depends on the trade terms)

• Packaging: Standard five-layer corrugated cardboard outer box. For e-commerce sellers, we can provide 200lbs grade drop test packaging.
• Shipping advantages: By optimizing container loading (Container Loading Optimization), the loading efficiency of 20 oz cups in 40HQ containers can be increased by 10%, thereby reducing the landed cost per individual cup.
