Glow sticks

Glow sticks, what types and sizes do you sell?

The most well-known are our glow bracelets - you have probably seen them at parties or events. They cost a few cents each and are packed in a tube with 100, 50 or sometimes 12 pieces. Available in a mix of colors or by color with 1 color in a package.

In addition to the glow bracelets, these tubes also contain connectors. With these connectors you can make glow bracelets, for example with a necklace if you connect 3 bracelets together.

In addition to the bracelets, we also sell glow sticks that are a lot bigger and thicker.
For example, we sell 6 inch sticks that are 15 centimeters long and 1 centimeter thick, with a hook.
The army also uses these sticks during night missions, a little closer to home these sticks are used for treasure hunts, night fishing, camping, night golf, TV shows, events or glow in the dark parties.

The larger sizes such as the 10 inch are 25 centimeters long - and can be used as road markings, on cruise ships or during glow in the dark golf to mark the course.

These 3 sizes are our best sellers.
Other sizes such as the 14 inch from 30 to sometimes even 35 cm are available on request.
This can be in an individual package or in bulk.

Glow sticks Connectors

In addition to the standard glow bracelets, we also sell connectors, these are plastic parts with which you can make something nice together with the bracelets. Think of glow glasses for example - the package contains 2 legs and a T-piece - with 2 bracelets you can make real glow in the dark glasses. And we also sell those glasses in a heart-shaped model. We also sell ball connectors with which you can make a ball with 12 bracelets that can also be used as a decoration at Christmas, for example.

Glow sticks – Quality and price

There are many suppliers of these glow sticks on the internet.
But sometimes the price differences are very big – what is this due to?
There are a few answers to this;

- The composition of the liquids.
The cost price of a glow stick is determined by, among other things, the amount of “glow substance”
This is an expensive ingredient that many suppliers like to save on – so the glow duration can vary enormously per supplier. As an example; our glow sticks give light for 8 to 12 hours – while others are almost invisible after 4 hours.
- The content of the glowstick – the greater the amount of liquid in the sticks, the better the light output.
- The quality of the manufacturer, there is a lot of rubbish on the market.
Sometimes substances are used that are banned in Europe, or it is of poor quality.
Our glow sticks are tested and approved every year on behalf of European standards.
- The extent of purchasing – GlowFactory only buys full containers from the manufacturer in China – this makes transport relatively cheaper than, for example, a partial shipment – ​​this is of course also reflected in our sales prices.

Glow sticks in Bulk

GlowFactory is a wholesaler and importer of various luminous party and glow items.
We buy directly from the best factories in the Far East and due to the strict quality controls we only sell high quality. Purchasing is almost always done per full sea container – this volume not only ensures a low purchase price, but also makes the transport costs a lot cheaper than, for example, a partial container, also called LCL shipment.

Custom made

Many of our customers have their own party shop, webshop or sell on online marketplaces such as Ebay or Amazon. Because it seems like everyone is selling the same product, we have also been producing for private label customers since 2014.

For example, you can have your own tube bracelets made with your own design, brand and barcode. This way you can sell your own product and the competition will be left behind – we take care of the import – the correct documents – and if necessary we can also keep stock for you in our warehouse in Alphen aan den Rijn in the Netherlands.
