Many purchasing managers I speak with these days tell me exactly the same thing:

That’s exactly what this article does.

Here we focus on metal outdoor storage boxes – in other words, the kind of cushion storage box, garden storage box or patio storage box you use for cushions, tools, toys and other outdoor items.

In this guide you’ll get:

1. A short explanation of what we mean by a metal garden storage box.

2. A clear Top 10 list of manufacturers in China – with Hongmao Garden intentionally at Rank 1.

6. And finally, why I see Hongmao Garden as China’s TOP1 outdoor storage box manufacturer for the European market.

What do we mean by metal garden storage boxes in this article?

In this article we are not talking about simple plastic boxes from the DIY store, but about:

• metal garden storage boxes / outdoor storage boxes,

• outdoor cushion storage boxes made from galvanised steel or aluminium,

• robust garden storage chests for furniture cushions, tools, toys, BBQ accessories and more,

• sometimes combined solutions with a small roof or integrated garden shed function.

Typical features:

• Material: galvanised steel, powder-coated steel sheet, sometimes aluminium,

• reinforced lids and hinges,

• locking with a cylinder lock or padlock hasp,

• fully weather-resistant construction for year-round use on the terrace, balcony or in the garden.

In other words, we are talking about outdoor metal storage boxes that match modern garden furniture and still survive several European winters without looking tired.

How to choose the right garden storage box manufacturer for your needs

To turn the Top-10 list into a real shortlist, a few clear questions help.

1. What is your main application?

• Classic metal outdoor storage box for garden / patio for cushions and accessories?

• Combined storage box + garden shed / garage?

• Premium aluminium garden storage box or robust steel box?

Depending on the answer, different manufacturers make sense:

• For pure garden storage boxes: Hongmao Garden, Haman, Huiding, Leryou, Yihua.

• For aluminium solutions: Kassico.

• For tool / heavy-duty applications: Meiqi, Huntop.

2. OEM / private label or standard products?

If you run or build a private label:

• you need a partner with genuine OEM outdoor storage box experience,

• who also thinks about colours, logos, packaging and POS materials.

Here, Hongmao Garden, Huiding, Haman, Yihua, Packings World and Kassico are particularly relevant.

3. Price positioning & material

• Entry to mid segment → galvanised steel with standard powder coating (e.g. Haman, Huiding, Leryou, Yihua).

• Mid to upper segment → better coating, stronger hinges, coordinated design (Hongmao Garden, parts of Huiding, Kassico).

• Premium / lightweight → aluminium (Kassico) or more design-driven solutions.

Match material, coating and hardware to your target price and channel.
