To Our Valued Partners:
The Chinese New Year (Lunar New Year) is approaching in February. During this period, raw material supply chains and logistics networks across Asia will pause operations.
*To guarantee your Q1 inventory, we strongly recommend finalizing your purchase orders immediately.
In the world of international trade, timing is everything. As we move through January, businesses worldwide are ramping up their operations for a strong start to 2026. However, there is a critical event on the horizon that every procurement manager must account for: The Lunar New Year (CNY).
At Stark Water, we pride ourselves on speed and reliability. But the reality of manufacturing in Asia is that this holiday represents a complete pause in the industrial ecosystem. It is not just our factory that closes; it is the raw material suppliers, the trucking companies, and the port authorities.
To ensure your projects—whether they involve complex 수처리 플랜트 or essential Spare Parts—stay on schedule, proactive planning is essential.
Why “Waiting Until February” is Too Late
A common misconception is that production stops only during the holiday week. In reality, the industrial slowdown begins much earlier and extends much later. Here is what the timeline actually looks like for your order:
-
1. The Raw Material Freeze (Late Jan):
Before we can weld a Stainless Steel Tank or assemble a skid, we need materials. Steel mills and resin suppliers often stop operations weeks before the holiday to perform maintenance. If we don’t lock in your materials now, we cannot start production. -
2. The Logistics Crunch (Early Feb):
Domestic logistics (trucking) is the first link to break. Drivers head home for family reunions early. Even if your goods are finished, without trucks, they cannot reach the port. -
3. The “March Bottleneck” (Post-Holiday):
When factories reopen in March, there is a massive surge of backlog orders from all over the world. New orders placed in February often get pushed to the back of the queue, resulting in lead times stretching into April.
The Strategic Advantage of Ordering Now
This is not just about avoiding delays; it is about securing a competitive advantage for your business in Q1.
✅ Priority Shipping Slots
Ocean freight space becomes incredibly tight right before the holiday. Orders confirmed now secure container space before rates spike.

✅ Continuous Inventory
Ensure you have ample stock of consumables (membranes, filters) to last through March, keeping your clients happy.
