Shanghai Minhang: What P&G China Confirms
P&G China’s careers page identifies a factory in Минхан, Шанхай, Китай as producing Oral-B electric toothbrushes. Its description also lists Braun electric shavers and some Gillette razors, along with a packaging innovation center.

- Braun electric shavers and some Gillette razors are also listed.
- Packaging innovation The site description identifies a global packaging innovation center.

What Buyers Can Confirm
The German and Chinese factory profiles confirm Oral-B electric toothbrush manufacturing at both named sites. Use the product’s own labeling and model details to answer a specific origin question.
2. How B2B Buyers Should Evaluate China-Based OEM Suppliers
A supplier’s country or city does not, by itself, prove product quality. A sound sourcing decision compares the exact product, process, site, and destination market. Start with evidence for the specific project — including the supplier’s documented capabilities, current production plan, and model-specific compliance documents. Avoid assuming every supplier in a region offers the same process, price, or quality system. The most useful basis is site-level capability that can be checked against the product specification and production location.
What to Verify
For each supplier, confirm the legal entity and production site, then match its processes and documents to the product and target market. Review the following project details:
- Product and motor specification Compare the claimed motor type and performance with the exact model’s specification and test records.
- Electronics and firmware Confirm the PCB, firmware version, and any wireless modules for the product you will order.
- Materials and brush heads Check the stated bristle, handle, and head materials against the product specification and supplier records.
- Molding and assembly Ask which processes are performed at the named site and which are outsourced.
- Battery and safety documents Match battery test reports to the cell and product configuration. Check whole-product requirements separately.
Do not infer a shared supplier relationship from a brand name, city, or component category. Verify any claimed customer or supply-chain relationship directly and obtain permission before publishing customer references.
Что это значит для B2B-покупателей
An independent brand can work with an OEM supplier without owning a factory. Before committing, request a product-specific scope and quotation covering the selected model, tooling, samples, materials, testing, packaging, order quantity, and shipping terms. Costs and schedules depend on these details; generic market figures do not define a project quote.
Four Checks for Comparing OEM Suppliers
- Comparable costs: Request itemized quotes for the same specification. Separate tooling, materials, testing, packaging, shipping, and other fees; compare like with like.
- Applicable documents: Ask which rules apply in each destination market and request the model-specific declarations and test reports that cover the quoted configuration. Check regulatory requirements, declarations, test reports and quality-system certificates for their respective purposes.
- Development scope: Confirm who is responsible for design, tooling, testing, packaging, and manuals; record outsourced work and change-control responsibilities.
- Project schedule: Agree on a milestone plan after requirements are defined; samples, tooling, testing, and shipping can affect timing.

3. How to Check a Product’s Origin
Start with the country-of-origin label on the product and packaging. Record the model number and production code, then contact the brand if the labeling does not answer your question. A charger’s identification number may differ from the toothbrush handle’s model number; give support the details for the component you are asking about.
For an OEM purchase, ask the supplier to identify the legal entity, production site and processes covered by its quotation. Record any outsourced work and the agreed responsibilities for inspection, product documents and changes.
For component-level pricing considerations, see our руководство по стоимости производства электрических зубных щеток.
4. Comparing Independent OEM Suppliers
Compare suppliers on the same product specification and destination market. Include materials, brush motion, electronics, packaging, sample approval, testing, inspection and shipping terms in the brief. This makes differences in price and project scope easier to assess.
Ask each supplier where production will take place, which operations it performs and how it manages subcontractors. Judge its available capacity, documents and samples directly, rather than assigning a quality tier, MOQ or lead time to an entire province.

How to Use These Answers
These answers draw on P&G’s published site information. Confirm individual product origin with the brand and OEM project terms with the supplier.
| Вопрос | Ответить |
|---|---|
| Где производятся электрические зубные щетки Oral-B? | P&G identifies Oral-B electric toothbrush manufacturing in Марктхайденфельд, Германия, и Минхан, Шанхай, Китай. These sources are not a complete global production list. For a particular toothbrush, check its origin label and contact brand support with its model or production code. |
| Изготовлены ли зубные щётки Oral-B в Китае? | Yes. P&G China’s careers page identifies Oral-B electric toothbrushes among products made at its Shanghai Minhang (Braun) factory. The page does not publish model-by-model or global market allocation. |
| Can market-share figures identify where a specific toothbrush is made? | No. A report on sales or market value does not establish a specific product’s factory or national production share. Check the product label and model-specific information from the brand. |
| How should I check compliance documents? | Request documents for the specific model and target market. For U.S. requirements, confirm classification and follow applicable FDA registration and listing rules; a listing is not proof of FDA approval. For EU requirements, review the product’s Declaration of Conformity and applicable standards, and check notified-body designation and scope in NANDO where relevant. Verify ISO certificates with the issuing body. See FDA registration and listing guidance for the applicable U.S. requirements. |
| What is the typical MOQ for an OEM electric toothbrush? | There is no single market-wide MOQ. For Relish standard custom projects, the starting quantity is 1 000 единиц. Confirm the minimum for your selected model, materials, packaging and tooling with the team. |
| How long does an OEM electric-toothbrush project take? | Timing varies with project scope. Confirm the current schedule for an existing-platform project или a custom design including the time needed for sample approval, tooling, testing, component purchasing, production and shipping. |
| Does a supplier in the same city make products for a major brand? | A city or product category does not prove a supplier relationship. Confirm any claimed brand connection directly with both parties and evaluate the exact site, processes, components, and documents for your project. |
