FAQ
•What types of mirrors and mirrored cabinets are commonly exported from Russia?
Three main categories: (1) wall mirrors framed and frameless (60×80 to 200×80 cm); (2) floor-standing dressing mirrors (psyche, cheval); (3) mirrored bathroom cabinets with internal shelves and LED illumination. Russian factories use 4-6 mm float glass with silver coating per GOST 17716-91 (analog of EN 1036).
•What backing and edge protection prevents mirror corrosion?
Quality mirrors use copper-free silver coating + 2-layer protective paint (acrylic + epoxy) — meets EN 1036 ECO. For bathroom and humid areas mandatory: sealed edges with polyurethane lacquer + waterproof MDF backing. Cheap mirrors with single paint layer corrode in 1-2 years near sinks — request EN 1036 cert.
•Are LED-illuminated mirrored cabinets safe for bathrooms?
Yes — bathroom mirrored cabinets must have IP44+ rating (splash-proof) for LED strips and 220V components. Russian factories use Osram or Russian-made LED strips (3000-6500K, dimmable on request). Touch switches with anti-fog heating element are available. Specify voltage (220V CIS or 110V/220V EU/MENA) in PO.
•How are mirrors packed for sea freight to prevent breakage?
Each mirror in 5-layer corrugated carton with 8 EPE foam corners + 2 cm bubble wrap + reinforced wooden crate for >100×80 cm. Vertical loading in container with «Fragile / This way up» labels and tilt-watch indicators. Insurance with All Risks coverage recommended. Russian factories ship 95%+ undamaged with this packing.
•MOQ and lead time for mirror orders?
MOQ 20-30 pcs per model for framed mirrors; 50 pcs for custom sizes. Lead time: 20-30 days production + 7 days packing + sea freight. Standard sizes (60×80, 70×90, 80×120) ship faster — often in stock at major factories. Custom shapes (oval, arched, irregular) add 10-15 days for CNC glass cutting.
•What glass thickness should I order for which use case?
4 mm — small decorative wall mirrors up to 60×80 cm. 5 mm — standard household and bathroom mirrors 60×80 to 120×80 cm. 6 mm — large dressing mirrors, mirrored wardrobes, and any mirror over 150 cm. Russian factories use float glass from Saint-Gobain Russia (Istra) and AGC Russia, both EN 572 compliant. Thicker glass = lower breakage risk in transit.
•What frame materials are available and how do they affect price?
Frameless polished-edge — cheapest, modern look (~$10-25/m²). MDF film-wrapped frame — budget, many colours (~+$5-10/pc). Solid wood frame (pine, oak, beech) — premium, +$30-80/pc. Metal frame (brushed steel, brass, black powder-coat) — modern industrial, +$20-50/pc. Carved wood with gold/silver leaf — luxury baroque style, +$100-300/pc.
•What safety film options are available for kids' rooms and schools?
Safety film (CPSC 16 CFR 1201 / EN 12600) laminated on mirror back prevents glass shards on breakage — mandatory for schools, kindergartens, hotel bathrooms in some jurisdictions. Adds $5-15/pc depending on size. Tempered glass mirrors (4-6×stronger) available with 14-day lead time. Specify 'safety mirror' or 'tempered' in PO if required by destination market regulations.
