5.5 Inch Junior Tongue Depressors — Manufacturer & Wholesale Supplier
Junior / paediatric tongue depressor. Cut to 140 × 16 × 1.8 mm from kiln-dried poplar and finished with bevelled, splinter-free edges. Wholesale rate is PKR 1.30–2.60 per piece — about PKR 1,300–2,600 per thousand, or roughly 550 pieces to the kilogram.
We are the factory, not a trading house: the poplar is dried, cut and packed at our own plant on Saggian By Pass Road, so the running sizes ship in a day or two instead of the weeks an import takes.
