Plan Ahead: 2026 Chinese New Year Holiday Schedule & Key Dates for Production & Shipping

To Our Esteemed Clients and Partners,

The entire staff at Dr. Solenoid would like to express their profound appreciation for your ongoing partnership and trust as the 2026 Chinese New Year (Spring Festival) draws near.

As workers in Chinese manufacturing and logistics reunite with their families on this significant national holiday, there is a widespread operational pause. We advise you to review the following important dates and make appropriate plans in order to guarantee a seamless transition and reduce any negative effects on your supply chain.

Key 2026 Holiday Dates at a Glance

How to Get Ready for the Action Plan for Customers

 
1. For OEM and production projects:
The last day to place confirmed orders is December 2025 or early January 2026. This makes sure that production slots are available and takes into account longer lead times from our own suppliers.
Custom and sample projects: Send in your needs well in advance. Before the holiday break, there needs to be more time for engineering, tooling, and testing custom solenoids, actuators, and coils.
2. For Shipping and Logistics:
Expect delays and higher costs. Before and after the holiday, logistics networks get very busy. Book shipments ahead of time and leave some extra time for customs and travel.
Final Shipments: All items must leave our building by January 27.
Limited Help During the Holiday Closure
From Feb. 10 to February 23, our factory and offices will be closed. At this time:
Email inquiries: We'll check them every so often for urgent matters.
Technical and Sales Support: After February 5, we will start giving formal answers and new quotes again.

For real emergencies, please email your dedicated sales representative.

Why planning ahead is so important

 
The Spring Festival has an effect on the whole supply chain, from suppliers of raw materials and parts to logistics and packaging. The best way to do this is to plan ahead:
Keep your projects from getting behind schedule.
Keep the right amount of stock on hand for important parts.
Make sure that industries like medical devices, automotive electronics, and industrial automation stay stable.
