How to produce the folding silicone three-piece set (bowl + cup + spoon)?
Material Selection
Made of food-grade silicone, it is heat-resistant (typically up to 200°C), non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and elastic, ensuring safety and longevity.
Mold Design and Manufacturing
Three-dimensional molds are designed based on the product’s shape (e.g., folding structure, edge treatment, etc.), balancing compactness after folding and stability after unfolding. Imported steel molds are processed using CNC machine tools to ensure dimensional accuracy and molding quality.
Production Process
Raw Material Preparation: Mix the silicone raw material, curing agent, and colorant in the correct proportions, stir thoroughly, and then cut to the specified size.
Injection Molding: Inject the mixed material into a mold and heat and pressurize to form the initial structure (temperature controlled at 150-200°C)
Post-vulcanization
After molding, a secondary vulcanization treatment is performed to enhance the material’s elasticity and folding durability.
Post-processing
Deburring, cleaning, and drying to ensure a smooth, contamination-free surface.
Finished Product Testing
Physical Properties: Tests for tear strength (≥25 kN/m), oil resistance (ASTM D471), and aging resistance (≥100,000 folds).
Safety Certification: Food contact components must pass SGS testing to ensure they are free of harmful substances such as BPA and PVC.
Key Technical Points
Folding Design: Special patterns or grooves create physical folds to prevent material breakage.
Heat Resistance Enhancement: The silicone undergoes high-temperature aging testing (e.g., 200°C for 30 minutes) to ensure it retains its shape.

How to purchase the right folding silicone three-piece set (bowl + cup + spoon)？
Safety:
Read the product label carefully to check whether the material information is marked and whether it complies with the national food safety standards.
Details:
Choose silicone tableware with natural color, flat and smooth surface, and no burrs or debris.
Design:
There are tableware in various shapes and colors on the market. Cute animal patterns can capture children’s hearts and make babies more interested in eating independently.
How to control the quality of the folding silicone three-piece set (bowl + cup + spoon)?
Raw Material Quality Control
Supplier Audit:
Select suppliers of food-grade silicone raw materials that are FDA/LFGB certified to ensure the raw materials are non-toxic, heat-resistant (≥200°C), and cold-resistant (-40°C).
Incoming Inspection:
Each batch of raw materials is tested for indicators such as volatile matter (≤0.5%), hardness deviation (±2 Shore A), and Mooney viscosity (40-60 MU). Medical-grade materials must also pass ISO 10993 biocompatibility testing.
Storage Management: The warehouse must be dry and dark, and the first-in, first-out principle must be implemented to ensure that the shelf life of raw materials does not exceed 6 months.
Production Process Optimization
Mixing Process: Use a twin-rotor internal mixer, with an initial temperature of 20-25°C, a mixing time of 8-12 minutes, a discharge temperature ≤50°C, and Mooney viscosity fluctuations controlled within ±3 MU.
Molding parameters: During injection molding, the injection pressure is controlled at 8-15 MPa and the temperature is ±2°C. During the vulcanization stage, a PLC system is used to monitor the temperature (±2°C) and pressure (8-15 MPa) in real time.
Post-Processing
Products must be left in a constant temperature room at 25°C for 24 hours. Medical-grade products must be matured in a Class 10,000 cleanroom to prevent microbial contamination.
Environmental and Equipment Management
Cleanliness Control: Medical-grade production workshops must meet ISO Class 4 cleanroom standards. General industrial production should also ensure stable workshop temperature and humidity (25±5°C/55±10%RH).
Equipment Maintenance: Regularly calibrate the injection molding machine’s temperature sensor. Provide mold venting grooves (0.5-1 per square centimeter, 0.03-0.05 mm deep) to prevent air bubbles.

After cleaning, place in a well-ventilated area to dry quickly.
Also remember to disinfect and sterilize the tableware weekly.
