We’re working throughout Chinese New Year to keep your projects moving. While manufacturers in China will close to celebrate the Year of the Dragon between 5-18 February, 2024, we can always find a solution to get your parts produced.
Operational year-round for your custom parts
Country-wide closures impact the global balance of supply and demand in the manufacturing world, but thanks to our distributed network of manufacturing partners, our network remains operational 24/7, year-round. While our services continue, you might notice longer lead times and/or higher prices on our platform for globally sourced parts during the holiday period.
