Beauty Device OEM Tooling and Mold Cost
How tooling and mold cost work in a beauty device OEM deal, and when adopting an existing shell beats paying for a new mold.
Beauty device OEM tooling cost covers the shell mold, any inserts and the fixture for assembly; it is a one-time upfront, not per unit.
Adopting an existing shell avoids the mold cost entirely and is the fastest route to a low-MOQ private label launch.
A new custom mold pays off only when the shape is your differentiator and volume justifies the amortisation over reorders.
Ask the factory to itemise tooling separately from the unit price so you can compare reskin versus full custom.
Own the mold files or negotiate their release, because tooling is the leverage that keeps future reorders portable.
