Foldable TPU soaking tub
可折叠泡澡桶
TPU portable bathtub that packs to 15cm. Factory $18–30, Amazon soaking-tub comps $80–110. Cold-plunge and small-space bathing are both pulling search up.
Chinese cross-border sellers already treat this as a 2026 independent-site blue ocean. Ice-bath summer + soak winter keeps the SKU year-round.
Oxford color, logo print, ice-bath vs soak size from 50 pcs.
Bulky even folded. Factory loads cartons to your forwarder; DDP via agent. Not a letter-box dropship SKU.
Recommended price zone

Heat + small bathrooms help, but ice-plunge narrative is weaker. Thin and workable.

UK/DE search is strong. REACH on TPU/PVC claims needed. Margin still healthy.

“No backyard. No $5k plunge. This folds under the bed. 3 minutes of ice water and I am a different person.”
