THRIWA is not relocating its Guangzhou card printing factory. The company plans to assume management of the entire industrial park at its existing Xintang address in January 2027, when the current property lease expires. THRIWA states that its CEO has signed the management contract for the park.
The announced expansion covers a tentative new park name, a redesigned entrance, larger offices and production-floor improvements. This article separates confirmed continuity from planned upgrades and explains what procurement teams should consider when scheduling custom card, board game card and TCG projects for 2027. For company background, see THRIWA's company history and factory capabilities.
Status note: This page describes THRIWA's announced plans. The final construction scope, timing and park name may change as implementation progresses.
No. The announced plan does not change the production address. THRIWA's factory remains at Zhongming Industrial Park, No. 2 Fuling Road, Tangmei Village, Xintang, Guangzhou—the site used since the early development of the business. The January 2027 change concerns park management rather than factory relocation: when the current property lease expires, THRIWA is scheduled to assume operational control of the industrial park.
Direct answer: The production site in Xintang will remain unchanged. Beginning in 2027, THRIWA plans to manage the entire industrial park and expand its office and production facilities.
Four upgrades are planned once THRIWA assumes management of the park: a new park name, a redesigned entrance, expanded offices and an upgraded factory floor.
THRIWA plans to rename Zhongming Industrial Park as Sanwa (THRIWA) Industrial Park. The company describes this name as tentative. If adopted, it would align the facility identity with the THRIWA brand and its long-term commitment to the location.
The plan includes a renovated main entrance with Sanwa (THRIWA) branding and clearer signage. The redesign is intended to improve site identification and create a more professional arrival point for scheduled client visits.
Administrative and creative offices are planned for expansion to support design, prepress and customer service functions. The stated objective is to improve communication and project coordination for international buyers.
Targeted production-area renovations are intended to improve the workflow from printing and die-cutting through quality control and packaging. THRIWA identifies operating efficiency, process control and support for complex finishes as the main objectives.
For buyers, the announcement has four practical implications. Three are intended operational benefits; one concerns continuity:
The table below shows what is expected to change—and what will remain the same— once THRIWA assumes management of the industrial park:
| Aspect | Current position | Announced plan for January 2027 |
|---|---|---|
| Site control | Operating within Zhongming Industrial Park | THRIWA is scheduled to assume management of the industrial park |
| Park name | Zhongming Industrial Park | Sanwa (THRIWA) Industrial Park (tentative) |
| Entrance | Existing facade | Renovated entrance with company branding and signage |
| Offices | Current administrative and creative space | Expanded space to support design, prepress and customer service |
| Production floor | Existing workflow | Planned improvements across printing → die-cutting → QC → packaging |
| Supply chain | Card printing and manufacturing | Closer collaboration with suppliers of accessories such as sleeves, binders and packaging boxes |
| Production address | Unchanged — Xintang, Guangzhou | |
THRIWA identifies Xintang's logistics network, manufacturing workforce and supplier base as reasons for investing further in its existing location. These resources have supported the company's development from a small printing operation into a custom card and board game manufacturer. Retaining the same address also preserves established production routines and supplier relationships while the planned improvements are introduced.
Capacity planning for 2027 starts with a clear specification. To receive a project-specific quotation, prepare the following details before contacting the team:
A complete brief helps the team review feasibility, recommend a sampling route and discuss an appropriate production window. See the custom card OEM/ODM process before submitting artwork.
No — the production address is unchanged. The factory stays at Zhongming Industrial Park, No. 2 Fuling Road, Tangmei Village, Xintang, Guangzhou. The January 2027 change concerns who manages the park.
THRIWA states that the management change is planned for January 2027, when the current property lease expires, and that its CEO has signed the relevant contract.
The planned name is Sanwa (THRIWA) Industrial Park. The company describes the rename as tentative.
The announcement does not provide a universal disruption schedule. It emphasizes continuity at the same location, but buyers with time-sensitive orders should confirm sampling and production dates directly with THRIWA.
No new ordering procedure is announced. Buyers should continue to submit card specifications, quantity, finishing, packaging, artwork status and target delivery requirements for project-specific review.
The expansion announcement refers to an improved entrance for visiting clients. Contact THRIWA in advance to ask about current factory-visit availability and appointment requirements.
For playing cards, tarot decks, oracle decks, board game cards or TCG projects, early planning gives both teams time to confirm specifications, artwork review, sampling and a suitable production window.
