Work Directly with the Factory
Keep the Drawing, Build and Shipment Connected
A direct factory conversation helps resolve practical questions while the display is still being made: whether the shape matches the approved design, where large pieces separate, and how the receiving crew will put them together.
Design Coordination
Send drawings, sketches, site photographs or brand references. We review the dimensions, viewing distance, structure and access before the build begins.
Production Updates
Agree when to review progress photographs and lighting checks. Identify details that need approval before finishing or packing makes them harder to inspect.
Export Packing
Plan transport sections, protection, labels and the loading sequence around the destination, access openings and assembly requirements.
Before You Approve the Order
Know What the Quotation Covers
Two quotations can show similar displays while covering different work. Confirm the design, production checks and delivery support so your team knows what is included.
Drawings and Site Requirements
Confirm dimensions, materials, colours, power, access and the installation window. Outdoor designs also need a review of weather exposure, anchoring and the documents required by the venue.
Checks During Production
Agree which views and details need review: shape, surface finish, lighting, joints and access to components. Specify any moving features and the checks required for them separately.
Packing and Site Assembly
Confirm section and crate identifiers, packing photographs, assembly information, spare parts and the support included. Match the plan to the local crew, equipment and available time.

Display Types
Illuminated Displays for Seasonal Events and Public Spaces
Each display is adapted to its setting, including scale, story, surface finish, lighting, transport sections, and installation method. Explore our custom lantern displays to choose shapes and design options, or see commercial light festival planning when several scenes must work together along one visitor route.
Commercial Christmas Displays
Develop Christmas figures, walk-through features, mall scenes and outdoor holiday displays around the space and seasonal theme.

Halloween Lantern Displays
Compare pumpkin entrances, character scenes and photo features for a seasonal trail. Agree any mechanical effects as a separate part of the brief.

Project Questions
Questions About Working with Our Factory
What makes this different from buying ready-made decorations?
Custom displays are developed around the site, theme, visitor route, deadline, weather exposure, and packing requirements. Ready-made decorations are supplied in existing designs and sizes, so they allow less adjustment for a specific venue.
Can you support outdoor commercial displays?
Yes. For outdoor projects, we review the steel structure, expected weather, anchoring, cable layout, transport sections, and the protection ratings required for the selected electrical components.
What should I send for an accurate quote?
Send the country, venue, event date, dimensions, indoor or outdoor use, reference images, route map and any electrical or site restrictions. List the quantity of each design or the number of matching sets and the pieces in each set. Specify the shipping and installation services you need included.
Can you work from CAD drawings or rough concept sketches?
Yes. Send CAD references, sketches, site maps, mascot files, brand guides, or visual references. We will review the structure, materials, lighting, transport sections, and practical production requirements.
Are you a lantern manufacturer or a trading company?
Star Factory Lantern designs and manufactures custom frames, fabric-covered forms, lighting systems, and selected moving features at our Zigong production facility. Clients communicate with the project team that coordinates the drawings, workshop work, testing, and packing.
Can you work as a festival lantern supplier for overseas projects?
Yes. For overseas events, we can provide theme and drawing development, custom fabrication, section labels, export packing, container-loading references, and installation guidance according to the agreed scope.
Can you support branded events and temporary installations?
Yes. We can adapt illuminated scenes, photo points, mascots, and temporary installations for agencies, brand teams, resorts, malls, theme parks, and public events.
What installation information is provided with the shipment?
The handover can include section labels, assembly drawings, packing references, cable information, and project-specific installation notes. Remote guidance or on-site support can be discussed according to the display and destination.
Can the factory produce commercial LED light sculptures as well as fabric lantern displays?
Yes. We can produce exposed LED wireframe sculptures, repeatable product collections, and commissioned illuminated artworks as well as traditional fabric-covered lantern displays. See Commercial LED Light Sculptures when visible LED lines and the steel form are central to the design.
