Hotel Slipper Sole Producent

Thin EVA soles and embossed EVA foam sheet for disposable and reusable hotel slippers, made in any gauge from 1 mm to 9 mm, in a soft 40–45 Shore C or a firm 70 Shore C grade. Foamed, embossed and die-cut in our own plant in Jinjiang, Fujian. Factory direct since 1982.

  • Sheet or finished soles — embossed sheet up to 1.4 m x 3.6 m for your own clicker press, or one-size soles cut and counted by us
  • Soft or firm grade — 40–45 Shore C for a light, flexible sole; 70 Shore C when a 4 mm sole has to stay flat and keep a clean edge
  • Non-slip face pressed in — diamond, wave or rib pattern embossed into the foam, so the grip does not wear off on wet tiles
  • Your hotel logo on the sole — send the artwork and we sample it on the sole before production
  • Left and right bagged apart — every bag counted and tagged, so your line opens one bag per side
  • FOB Xiamen, darmowe próbki — quotation within one business hour

Buy It as Sheet or as Cut Soles

Slipper factories with their own clicker presses usually take thin EVA foam sheet, already embossed, and cut it themselves. Amenity suppliers and makers who only sew or glue take the soles already cut, split left and right, and counted. Both can travel in the same container.

Choosing Hardness and Grubość

A hotel slipper sole is a thin sole of closed-cell EVA foam, usually 3 to 5 mm thick, placed under a terry, velour, waffle or non-woven upper. Two figures decide how it feels and what it costs per pair: the Shore C hardness of the foam and its thickness.

40–45 Shore C Soft grade 70 Shore C Firm grade
Underfoot Soft and flexible, bends with the foot Firm and flat, feels solid even at 3–4 mm
Kształt Folds easily, packs very flat Stays flat and does not curl at the toe
Cut edge Slightly rounded Crisp, clean edge after die cutting
Wear Suited to single use Stands up better to repeated wear
Often chosen for One-night disposable slippers; sheet cut in the buyer’s own factory Higher-grade hotel and spa slippers; soles bought ready cut

3 mm

The lightest and lowest material cost per pair. The usual gauge for one-night disposable hotel slippers.

4 mm

More cushion while still packing flat. A common gauge for soles bought ready cut in 70 Shore C.

5 mm

Noticeably softer underfoot. For thicker spa slippers and premium guest slippers.

Any gauge from 1 mm to 9 mm can be made, and hardness and thickness can also be matched to a sole you buy now. For cotton, plush and felt house slippers, which use a thicker 7–20 mm sole, see our EVA slipper sole page.

Non-Slip Faces for Wet Bathroom Floors

Guests walk from the shower to the bed in hotel slippers, so the floor side has to hold on wet tile. The pattern is pressed into the EVA while the sheet is made. It is part of the sole, not a printed dot or sprayed coating that wears away after a few steps.

From One Sole to a Full Run

Hotel slipper soles have no fixed standard size, so every order starts from the sole the buyer already uses or from three measurements.

  1. Send a sole or three measurements

    Length, width across the forefoot and width at the heel, plus the thickness, hardness and colour you want. A photo of a sole on paper with the measurements marked is enough to quote.

  2. Wykonujemy wykrojnik

    A steel-rule die is made from your shape. There is no mould. If you have no sole to send, we cut from the closest die we already hold.

  3. Darmowa próbka do zatwierdzenia

    Cut in your thickness, hardness, pattern and colour, and sent at no charge. Nothing goes into production until you have approved it.

  4. Production, count and loading

    Soles are cut on clicker presses, checked, split left and right, bagged by count and loaded FOB Xiamen. Sheet, if you take it, goes in the same container.

Counted, Bagged and Loaded

Hotel slipper soles ship in very large counts, so packing is where most receiving problems start. Every bag leaves our plant with its side and count already written on it.

Who Buys Hotel Slipper Soles

Our hotel sole customers are businesses that make or assemble slippers in volume, not hotels buying finished slippers by the carton.

Die-cut soles

Hotel amenity suppliers

Soles bought cut, split and counted, then paired with terry, velour or waffle uppers for hotel and resort contracts, with the hotel’s logo on the sole when the contract calls for it.

Embossed sheet

Disposable slipper factories

Sheet at 3 to 5 mm, in the 1.2 x 2.4 m or 1.4 x 3.6 m format, cut on their own clicker presses to their own dies.

Sheet or soles

Spa and wellness slipper makers

Thicker 5 mm soles for closed-toe spa slippers. The firmer 70 Shore C grade keeps its shape through longer wear.

Making cotton, plush or felt house slippers instead? Those need a thicker sole, usually 7 to 20 mm, and a full size run. See our EVA slipper sole page.

Hotel Slipper Soles — Pytania Kupujących

Thickness, hardness, size, grip, minimums and shipping. If your question is not here, send it with your enquiry and our engineers will answer it directly.

What are hotel slipper soles made of?

Most hotel slipper soles are made of closed-cell EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) foam, 3 to 5 mm thick, with a non-slip pattern embossed on the floor side. EVA is light, does not soak up water from bathroom floors, and can be die-cut cleanly in large runs. SANSD foams, embosses and cuts this material in its own plant in Jinjiang, Fujian.

What thickness should a hotel slipper sole be?

3 mm is the usual gauge for one-night disposable hotel slippers because it is the lightest and cheapest per pair. 4 mm adds cushioning while still packing flat, and 5 mm is used for thicker spa and premium guest slippers. SANSD makes hotel slipper sole sheet and soles in any gauge from 1 mm to 9 mm.

Should I choose 40–45 Shore C or 70 Shore C?

Choose 40–45 Shore C for a soft, flexible sole on single-use slippers, or when you cut sheet in your own factory. Choose 70 Shore C when you want a thin sole that stays flat, keeps a crisp cut edge and stands up to repeated wear, as in higher-grade hotel and spa slippers. We can also match the hardness of a sole you already buy.

Do you sell EVA sheet or finished hotel slipper soles?

Both. Embossed EVA sheet is supplied at 1.2 m x 2.4 m or in a 1.4 m x 3.6 m large format, in any thickness from 1 mm to 9 mm, and sold by the sheet. Die-cut soles are cut to your pattern, split left and right, counted and sold by the pair. One container can carry both.

What size is a one-size hotel slipper sole?

There is no industry standard, but a common adult one-size sole is about 29 cm long, 11 cm across the forefoot and 8 cm across the heel. Children's and other sizes are cut to order from your pattern or measurements.

How does the sole stay non-slip on wet bathroom floors?

The pattern is embossed into the EVA while the sheet is pressed, so the grip is part of the sole and does not wear off like a printed or sprayed finish. Diamond, wave, rib, square, honeycomb and cross patterns are available, and closed-cell EVA does not absorb the water on the floor.

Why use EVA instead of a fabric or non-woven sole?

A fabric or non-woven sole soaks up water on a bathroom floor, gives little grip on tile and wears through quickly. An EVA sole under the same upper stays dry on the underside, adds cushioning and carries an embossed non-slip pattern, for very little added weight.

Can you match the sole we buy now?

Yes. Send one sole, or a photo of it on paper with the length, forefoot width and heel width marked. We make a cutting die from the shape, match the thickness, hardness and colour, and send a free sample for approval before production.

Can you put our hotel logo on the sole?

Yes. Send your logo artwork with the enquiry, together with the sole size and where the logo should sit. We make a sample with the logo on the sole for your approval before production starts. A new logo is quoted with its own lead time at the enquiry stage.

Jakie jest minimum zamówienia?

It depends on the thickness, hardness, colour and pattern, and on whether you take sheet or cut soles. Send the specification and the quantity you have in mind and we confirm the minimum with the quotation.

Jaki jest czas realizacji?

Twenty-five days from confirmed specification and approved sample. A new colour match or an embossing plate we do not already hold is quoted with its own lead time at the enquiry stage.

Jak pakujecie i wysyłacie podeszwy?

Left and right soles are packed in separate woven bags, each tagged with the order number, the side and the count. Bags are stacked by order, checked against the packing list and loaded at our plant. We quote FOB Xiamen, and CIF or DDP on request.
