UMG makes oral irrigators and water flossers in Tangshan, China, for distributors, retail brands and private-label programmes. The range is six models, and none of them is a flagship with five variants under it — each one is a different product for a different shelf: a faucet-mounted unit that needs no tank, three handheld units at different pressures, a manual pump that works without power, and a combined sonic toothbrush and irrigator.
Buyers arriving here are usually deciding two things at once: which models to range, and whether the order is a stock order of UMG-branded cartons or a private-label run. The table below answers the first question with the published figures; the sections after it deal with the second.
Pressure is quoted in psi and tank volume in millilitres, because that is how the products are specified on their own pages. Where a figure has not been published, the cell says so rather than carrying an estimate.
| Model | Form | Tank | Pressure | Power |
| UM-X1 | Faucet-mounted | No tank | Mains pressure | None — fits a conventional tap, no battery and no charging |
| UM-800 | Handheld | 200 ml | 65–85 psi | 2 × AA batteries, not included; 3,000 pulses/min |
| UM-502 | Handheld, rechargeable | 250 ml | 30–120 psi, 5 modes | 1,200 mAh battery, USB 5 V, IPX7 |
| UM-F4 | Handheld, piston body | 180 ml | up to 80 psi, 2 modes | 2 × AA NiMH, AC 100–240 V adaptor |
| UM-190 | Manual pump | 95 ml | Hand-pumped jet | None — ABS and PVC body, no power source |
| UM-F6 | Sonic toothbrush + irrigator | Ask for data sheet | Ask for data sheet | Combined unit with brush heads for orthodontic and standard use |
The pressure ranges are not interchangeable between markets. A 30–120 psi unit like the UM-502 covers the whole range a retail buyer is likely to want, with five settings from a soft jet for sensitive gums to a pulse mode. The UM-800 sits in the 65–85 psi band. The UM-190 is pumped by hand and needs no power supply at all.

Buyers who range irrigators usually range the rest of the chairside consumables with them: the dental curing light and the dental handpiece are the two categories most often ordered on the same purchase order, and the whole catalogue sits under dental equipment.
An oral irrigator is a simple product with an unusually wide spread of specifications: a 95 ml manual pump and a 250 ml rechargeable unit with five pressure settings are sold under the same category name and answer to completely different customers. For a buyer assembling a range, the useful questions are not what the product does — everyone knows what a water flosser does — but which specification fits which shelf, and what has to be agreed before a carton is printed.
Four specifications decide most of it:
These four are also the specifications that decide the carton. A 200 ml handheld with two AA cells packs differently from a 250 ml rechargeable with a USB cable, and the carton count per export box is quoted per model rather than per range.
The same product is searched for under several names, and the names tend to follow the market rather than the technology. In the United States the retail term is water flosser; in the United Kingdom and in dental trade catalogues it is oral irrigator; in distributor lists it often appears as dental irrigator or oral water irrigator; and in clinical writing it is simply an irrigator, with the water flosser being the consumer version of the same idea.
This matters for a brand owner in one practical way: the name on the carton and the name in the marketplace listing are not always the same word, and the manual has to be written in the term the buyer's customer will search for. When you brief a private-label run, tell us which term the market uses — it changes the artwork and the instruction leaflet, not the product.
The clinical case for the product is covered elsewhere on the site rather than here: the benefits of dental oral irrigators and the professional cleaning guide are written for the end user, and this page is written for the buyer.
A private-label quotation is built from six pieces of information. Send all six and the quote comes back with the artwork requirements attached; send four and the conversation takes an extra week.
What we will not do is quote a private-label programme from an assumption. The minimum quantity, the artwork deadline and the production slot depend on the model and the packing, and they are confirmed in writing before an order is accepted.
Packing is quoted per model. The UM-190, for example, is packed 80 sets to a carton; the rechargeable and battery models are packed to their own counts, which are confirmed on the quotation rather than assumed from the range. Units that ship with batteries are declared as such, because the carrier requires it.
Voltage follows the model: the UM-F4 is supplied with a 100–240 V adaptor and two AA NiMH cells, the UM-502 charges from USB 5 V, the UM-800 takes two AA cells that are not included, and the UM-190 and UM-X1 have no electrical supply at all. If your market needs a specific plug or a specific battery type, say so at the quotation stage — the accessory can be changed then, before the carton is printed.
Documentation is agreed per shipment. Tell us which documents your customs broker and your retail customer require, and the quotation will list what can be supplied with the order — before the goods are booked, not after.
Yes. Orders are quoted for distributors and retail brands as well as for private label, and a mixed order across the six models is quoted as one consignment with a packing list per carton. Give us the model mix and the destination and the quote will be specific rather than indicative.
The UM-502 is the rechargeable unit with five modes and a 30–120 psi range, a 250 ml tank and a USB charge; the UM-800 is the battery unit at 65–85 psi with a 200 ml tank and two AA cells. The UM-502 is the wider-range product; the UM-800 is the simpler one at a lower unit cost.
Private-label runs are quoted per order. Send the model, the quantity, the brand files, the market language and the packing format, and we will confirm what can be produced for that order and what the artwork needs to look like.
The UM-190, which is pumped by hand and has no battery or adaptor at all, and the UM-X1, which runs from the water supply and needs no electricity. Both remove the charging step entirely, which is usually the deciding factor in that market.
The six models in this range are handheld and faucet-mounted consumer units. They are sold through dental trade catalogues as home-care products, and they are not a substitute for a chairside irrigation system. If you are looking for a professional unit for the surgery, tell us and we will point you to the right part of the catalogue instead of selling you this one.
Send the models you want to range, the market, the packing format and whether the order is UMG-branded or private label, and we will quote it. Request a quotation for oral irrigators.
