What fillers need from a substrate: absorbency, wet strength, lint
A filler needs a pad that takes up the same amount of liquid every time, stays intact when lifted from a wet jar, and leaves no fibers on the face. Five properties decide that:
| Property | Why it matters | What to specify |
|---|---|---|
| Liquid pickup | Sets the fill weight per pad and the cost per jar | Target grams of liquid per pad, or per gram of dry pad |
| Retention and release | Pads must hold liquid in the jar without pooling, then release it on the skin | Acceptable free liquid in the jar after your stability period |
| Wet strength | Pads must not tear or pill when lifted with tongs or fingers | Wet tensile strength in machine and cross direction |
| Lint | Loose fibers on the skin cause complaints and returns | Lint limit and test method |
| Dimensional stability | Pads swell when wet; size drift affects jar fit | Dry and wet diameter, thickness |
How fiber choice changes performance
Cotton holds liquid well and gives a soft, familiar feel.
View Full Specification Details
Viscose absorbs fastest and costs least, so it often appears in blends. Lyocell is smooth, keeps its strength when wet and gives an even feel, which suits essence pads. Most toner pads use a blend chosen to reach a target pickup at a target cost.
Formula compatibility
The substrate must not change your formula.
View Full Specification Details
Some preservatives and actives can bind to cellulose fibers, which lowers their free concentration in the liquid. Test preservative efficacy (for example to ISO 11930) on the filled pad, not only on the bulk liquid. For the dry pad, we can supply test reports for fluorescent whitening agents, formaldehyde and microbial load SGS CANWT00472237, Intertek CNIR2601SZ10615.
Textures: embossed, dual-sided, dimple, quilted
Texture decides how a toner pad feels and how much liquid it carries. We make four main types Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615):
Embossed — a pressed pattern adds bulk and small channels that hold liquid. Our China-patented cotton pad patterns are available; see Cosmetic Cotton Pads.
Dual-sided — one textured side for wiping and gentle exfoliation, one smooth side for soaking and soothing. This format is widely used in K-beauty toner pads.
Dimple — small cells across the surface hold liquid close to the skin and release it on contact.
Quilted — a stitch-like embossed grid gives a thicker, cushioned pad that stays flat in the jar.
Tell us whether the pad is for exfoliating, soothing or essence use, and we will suggest a texture and basis weight Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615).
PATENTED DESIGN
Reed Mat Textured Nonwoven (ZL 2023 3 0324517.6)
Formats: cut pieces, jar-ready stacks, rolls
We can supply substrates in three formats, depending on how your filling line feeds pads Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615):
| Format | How it is packed | Suits | What to tell us |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cut pieces | Loose pads in sealed PE bags inside cartons | Manual or semi-automatic filling | Size, shape, pads per bag |
| Jar-ready stacks | Counted, aligned stacks, e.g. 60, 70 or 80 pads Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615), textured side facing the same way | Fast jar loading before liquid dosing | Count per stack, orientation, stack height |
| Rolls | Slit rolls on cores, wrapped and palletized | Lines that cut and stack pads in-line | Width, roll diameter, core size, splice limit |
We already make 3-layer cotton composite roll stock for cotton pad converting Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615), which is the starting point for roll supply.

Lotion pickup testing with your essence
The fastest way to choose a substrate is to test 2–3 candidate pads with your own liquid. We send the pads; you or your filler run the test Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615):
Action Step
Weigh 10 dry pads and record the average dry weight.
Action Step
Soak each pad in your toner or essence for a fixed time, for example 60 seconds.
Action Step
Drain each pad on a mesh for a fixed time, for example 30 seconds, then weigh it.
Action Step
Calculate pickup = (wet weight − dry weight) ÷ dry weight. A pickup of 5.0 means the pad holds 5 g of liquid per gram of fiber.
Action Step
Run a jar test — fill a jar at your planned dose, store it for your stability period, then check free liquid, pad integrity and odor.
Action Step
Run a line trial — feed Verified Factory Spec pads through your filling line to check feeding, stacking and dosing.
If you prefer, send us the liquid’s viscosity, alcohol content and pH, and we will shortlist pads before sampling Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615). Any liquid sample you ship to us needs a safety data sheet (SDS).

Supplying fillers in Korea, Japan and the US
Once filled, a toner pad is a cosmetic product, so the brand and its filler handle cosmetic GMP, safety assessment and registration.
View Full Specification Details
ZEFU supplies the dry substrate and the documents fillers usually ask for: fiber composition report, test reports and lot traceability Verified Factory Spec.
Korea — many K-beauty toner pad brands work with contract fillers. We can ship to your filler directly and label cartons in Korean and English Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615).
Japan — buyers usually expect strict appearance checks for foreign matter and stains. Our inspection standard: Verified Factory Spec.
USA — as of October 2026, dry pads from China carry high US import duties, and the rate depends on how the pad is classified (cotton wadding or nonwoven). Confirm the HTS code with your customs broker before you quote; see Supplying US Brands.

FAQ
Q1Do you supply pads to toner pad filling factories?+
Yes Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615). Toner pad brands and fillers source dry cotton or lyocell pads from nonwoven factories. ZEFU supplies embossed and dual-texture pads as cut pieces or rolls with tight GSM tolerance Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615), and can ship directly to your filler with a lot number on every carton.
Q2What diameters and thicknesses are available?+
Round pads come in Verified Factory Spec and Verified Factory Spec; oval and square shapes need a new cutting die Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615). We size the pad to your jar and allow for swelling when wet, so the stack still fits after filling.
Q3Can you match our current pad?+
Yes Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615). Send us 20–30 pads from your current supply. We check fiber, GSM, thickness, size, texture and pickup, then make a matching sample in 7 days (stock) / 20–25 days (custom OEM). We match performance, not another company’s registered pattern; for the surface, we offer one of our own patterns or a custom one.
Q4What is your GSM tolerance?+
Our standard basis-weight tolerance is ±5% Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615), measured per lot to ISO 9073-1 Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615). If your fill weight is tight, we can agree a narrower tolerance and a sampling plan in the written specification Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615).
Q5Can you supply rolls instead of cut pads?+
Yes Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615). We slit rolls to your width on your core size, then wrap and palletize them for in-line cutting. Tell us the width, maximum roll diameter, core size and how many splices per roll you accept.
Q6How do you pack pads for filling lines?+
Cut pads and counted stacks go into sealed PE bags, then into export cartons labelled with product code, lot number and production date Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615). Stacks keep the same orientation, so operators can load jars without turning pads. Cartons are palletized and stretch-wrapped for sea freight Verified (Intertek Audit CNIR2601SZ10615); carton size and pads per carton: Custom OEM Spec (40–100 GSM / S–XXL).
