It's pretty much just a silicone mold designed to freeze water or other liquids into spheres or whatever unique shape you need, and it come with a lid so you can stack them without things getting messy in the freezer. The thing holds up to about 120°C, so you could theoretically use it for some gentle warming tasks too, though most buyers just stick to ice or chocolate work. 2. 300,000 to a million cycles is what we see for mold life, depending on how roughly you handle it. standard size runs 7.4 by 6.5 centimeters, but we can tweak that if you need something different. Hardness ranges from 20 to 90 Shore A—basically form very soft to quite firm—and most people picking a spherical design go for something in the middle, maybe 60 or 70, so the ice pops out cleanly without tearing. Surfce finish can be textured, polished, or just smooth, and that's usually decided by whether you want the ice to be crystal clear or have a frosted look (the polished surface tends to give clearer cubes). 3. All our materials are food-grade silicone with FDA and REACH certs, though we don't usually run full COAs unless you specifically ask, so just keep that in mind. MOQ for custom colors or shapes is typically around 5000 units or so. 4. Color options are natural, black, or we can match your Pantone if you're doing a branded project. Production capasity sits at about 100,000 units per month—give or take—so we're not going to hold you up on timing for most orders, but lead time usually runs 20 days or so for custom runs. our company can also change the mold shape entirely, not just the surface, and we do the OEM/ODM thing as standard. 5. The lid is a nice touch, but honestly, it's not airtight—it's more for keeping dust out and letting you stack molds vertically without spilling. Don't use these for anything involving solvent-based liquids, as the silicone swells badly with acetone or such—they're strictly water-based or food-grade stuff only.
Our MOQ for standard orders is typically 1,000 units, but we can discuss lower quantities for custom designs depending on the complexity. Just reach out with your specs and we'll work something out.
Yes, our molds are certified FDA, REACH, and ROHS, so they're safe for food contact. We can provide the certification documents upon request with your order.
Absolutely, we can adjust the hardness between 20° and 90° Shore A to suit your needs. For ice molds, we usually recommend a softer silicone for easy removal, but we'll match it to your design.
Lead time depends on the design complexity and quantity, but for a standard custom order with mold making, it's usually 15-20 working days. We'll confirm once we see your artwork.
Yes, we offer custom colors beyond Natural and Black. For surface finishing, texture helps with non-stick properties, polished gives a glossy look, and smooth is the most common for ice molds. Just let us know your preference.
