Flexible Product Development. Consistent Manufacturing
At KHOI NGUYEN ITC, flexibility means turning buyers’ ideas, drawings or reference samples into production-ready woodenware. We support importers, distributors, retailers and private-label brands with practical OEM/ODM solutions tailored to their market requirements.
Our configurable product platform covers Acacia, Teak, Bamboo, Rubberwood and mixed-wood constructions. Buyers can customize dimensions, shapes, functional details, branding, finishes and packaging across cutting boards, serving boards, trays and other wooden home products.
This flexibility is supported by approved specifications, golden samples, material requirements and defined quality-control checkpoints. The result is more consistent execution from product development and sampling through mass production and export packaging.
4 Material Platforms & 6 Construction Systems
Material selection and lamination method define product aesthetics, weight, dimensional stability, and market positioning.
Warm tonal variation, broad formats, and exceptional OEM flexibility
The cornerstone material of international retail assortments. Vietnamese plantation Acacia exhibits dynamic natural grain from honey gold to deep warm brown, excellent density, moisture resilience, and compelling cost advantage.
Everyday cutting boards, heavy end-grain blocks, serving boards, kitchen gift sets
Six Engineering Constructions Confirmed Before Quotation
Edge Grain
Parallel strips for broad board families
Timber strips arranged parallel along their length. Offers high dimensional stability, showcasing natural timber grain flow across broad SKU families.
Durable, cost-effective, easily shaped with grooves and profiles
End Grain
Vertical wood fibers for heavy chopping blocks
Wood segments assembled vertically so the cutting surface exposes end-grain fibers. Knives cut between fibers rather than severing them, preserving knife sharpness and self-healing cuts.
Self-healing cuts, protects chef knife edges, maximum butcher heft
Herringbone
Angled strips for a distinctive artisanal identity
Precision angled strips aligned in a dynamic chevron matrix. Requires stringent tolerance control to ensure flawless, watertight seams at every intersection.
Striking architectural aesthetics, highly favored in EU/US boutique retail
Flat-Grain Tray
Flat base with raised rim, walls or compartments
Engineered for serving platters, breakfast trays, and compartmentalized organizers. CNC-pocketed from solid timber or box-jointed with raised perimeter lips.
Sleek, ergonomic, prevents items from sliding off during transport
Laminated Bamboo
Horizontal, vertical and cross-laminated plies
Bamboo strips bonded under high-frequency hydraulic press. The cross-ply core placed 90° against outer veneers eliminates tension and climatic deformation.
Moisture-resilient, lightweight, eco-friendly modern aesthetic
Two-Tone Pattern
Striped, checker and herringbone mixed-timber builds
Precision juxtaposition of contrasting timbers (dark honey Acacia + creamy Rubberwood) in symmetrical stripes or checkered blocks, turning utility boards into dining centerpieces.
Creates unmistakable signature designs for private-label brands
