Tianjin Yiyi chooses to partner with Georgia-Pacific (GP) from the US for fluff pulp mainly due to its material performance, stable supply chain, brand reputation, and international compliance.
Material Performance – Directly Determines Pad Quality
GP fluff pulp acts as the "core structure" of pet pee pads, and its advantages directly improve product performance:
- Long fibers & high bulkiness: Thick fibers with good bulkiness allow fast liquid absorption and even distribution. Combined with superabsorbent polymer (SAP), they form a stable absorbent system that reduces side leakage and seepage back.
- High compression resilience & softness: Remains elastic and soft even after high compression, making pads thinner and more comfortable for pets.
- High whiteness and cleanliness: Meets international hygiene standards with no harmful residues, supporting our positioning as a safe, high-quality product.
Supply Capacity – Ensures Stable Large‑Scale Production
- Top global capacity & reliable supply: As one of the world's largest fluff pulp suppliers, GP has mature production and logistics systems. It can support Tianjin Yiyi's large‑scale demand of around 5,000 tons per month and lower the risk of supply disruption.
- Consistent quality: Stable quality between batches, supported by Tianjin Yiyi's strict incoming inspections.
Brand & Compliance – Improves Competitiveness in Global Markets
- Premium raw material brand: GP is a well‑recognized high‑end material brand in the hygiene industry, alongside Sumitomo SAP. It serves as a trusted quality signal for overseas buyers and reduces trust costs.
- Meets strict EU & US standards: GP fluff pulp complies with environmental and safety requirements in the US, EU and other major markets, helping Tianjin Yiyi products clear customs and enter high‑end channels smoothly.
Strategy & Cost – Maximizes Long‑Term Value
- Quality control from the source: High standards starting from raw materials help maintain Tianjin Yiyi's leading industry position, with exports accounting for over 30% of China's total exports of similar products for many years.
- Cost efficiency via long‑term cooperation: Stable partnership brings better pricing, technical support and priority supply, improving overall cost competitiveness.
