How We Customized a SPA Face Pillow in Just 25 Days — A Real Case from a Japanese Beauty Chain

When a Japanese beauty chain approached us with a custom request, they needed more than a standard face pillow. They wanted a taller, firmer design with a stable base — something that could support long-session treatments with enhanced comfort and structure.

With in-house mold design, CNC machining, and a streamlined production workflow, we helped them turn this concept into reality — delivering a fully customized soft gel solution within just 25 days.

🛠 Step-by-Step Project Timeline

Day 1: Requirement & Mold Design


The client outlined a need for a face pillow with extra height and a firm, stable base. Our engineering team translated the brief into technical drawings and completed mold design within 24 hours.

Day 2: CNC Mold Fabrication

We used precision CNC machining to produce the mold in-house, ensuring dimensional accuracy and a smooth foundation for later production.

Day 3–5: Sample Production & Testing


Using a blend of PU soft gel and polyether, we produced several samples. These were tested for:

  • Density and rebound
  • Compression resistance
  • Surface quality and softness
  • Base firmness and stability

Samples were shipped via express to Japan for approval.

Day 6–10: Client Feedback & Refinement


The client requested subtle changes to the firmness of the base. We revised the mold parameters, created new samples, and secured final approval by Day 10.

Day 11–24: Mass Production



We launched production across our coordinated manufacturing lines, adapting capacity to match the material and mold requirements of this specific face pillow model.
Our QC team conducted:

  • Real-time inspections
  • Hardness/density checks
  • Packaging verification for export standards

Day 25: Final Quality Check & Shipping


After final inspection, the goods were packed and shipped. All logistics and documentation were arranged, and the client received the shipment on schedule.
