Packaging Update and First Sample Shots in the USA

By Tina Chan

Hello Songbird Family,

We are excited to share that we have finalized our packaging design and are pleased to announce that the Ultimate Hamper will ship fully assembled.

Thanks to our 3PL partner, who specializes in large and bulky items, we were able to secure pricing for a larger box at only a modest increase compared to the smaller box originally planned for the unassembled hamper. This means your experience receiving and unboxing the Ultimate Hamper will be much easier, smoother, and more enjoyable.

Check out the box design!

We also have another exciting production update. After completing some required modifications to the factory press, the mold for the large bin has now been mounted, and we have produced the first sample shots of the Ultimate Hamper at our U.S. factory.

Moving the 16,000-pound steel mold required a specialized crane, and we are grateful that the process went smoothly and seamlessly. The next step is to thoroughly clean all of the tooling. As you can see, the first test shots have some staining, but once the tooling is fully cleaned, we will begin our first manufacturing run. That run will include the full assembly of all smaller plastic components and aluminum parts.

This is such an exciting milestone for us, and we are grateful to have you along for the journey. We will continue to keep you updated as we move closer to production and shipping.

Yours Truly,

Tina
