Frequently Asked Questions – Ceramic Industry & Sourcing

Are ceramic products safe for food and drink use?

Yes. All ceramic mugs, plates and dinnerware from Homey Ceramic are made using food-safe glazes and materials. We comply with major safety standards required in key markets, including EU and UK food contact regulations — ensuring no harmful substances migrate into food under normal use conditions.

How can these articles help with my ceramic sourcing or purchasing decisions?

Our articles are written to support real purchasing decisions, not just to share general information. By reading them, you can better evaluate ceramic materials, finishes, quality standards, and production processes — helping you avoid common sourcing mistakes and reduce risks before placing an order.

You'll also gain practical guidance on customisation, MOQ planning, compliance requirements for the EU and UK, and upcoming market trends, so you can plan collections more efficiently and communicate clearly with manufacturers. If you're preparing a new project or comparing suppliers, these insights can save you time, control costs, and lead to more confident, well-informed purchasing decisions.

If you're ready to apply these insights to your own project, our team is happy to provide a factory-direct quotation and professional advice.

How do you ensure consistent quality during mass production?

We operate strict quality control processes at every stage — from raw material inspection, glaze testing, kiln firing monitoring, final inspection before packing, to batch sampling. This helps maintain product consistency and reduces defects before shipping.

Do you ship internationally, and who handles customs/import duties?

Yes, we ship worldwide to our B2B customers. International logistics, duties and taxes depend on the destination country's regulations. Typically, import duties and local taxes are borne by the buyer unless otherwise agreed in your contract or quotation.

What packaging standards do you use for international transportation?

We use multilayer protective packing — including standard bubble wrap around each item plus reinforced cartons — to minimise breakage during transit. This ensures safe delivery even over long distances.

How do I start a quotation or place an order?

You can send your enquiry (including product type, quantities, custom requirements, target market, and any reference images) through our quote form. We will respond with pricing, timelines and next steps.
