ABOUT HQ - WORLD'S LEADING MANUFACTURER OF QUALITY BIRD CAGES

From the southern provinces of mainland China, a modern-day highly industrialized manufacturing center, HQ supplies bird cages to the world's markets.  Over the course of the past seventeen years, HQ has engineered one of the most comprehensive product lines available and has refined its manufacturing technology to yield the quality and precision demanded of a first line supplier.   First and foremost in its engineering development agenda is to provide a safe habitat for the resident bird.  Beyond this all-important factor is functionality, serviceability, durability, and styling.  So, not only will HQ cages provide a safe and functional habitat for your bird, but they will enhance the beauty and décor of your home or building.  Should I be concerned about a cage made in China?  Not if it's an HQ Cage!!!  Please read this information about cage manufacturing:  Where are cages actually made?  Please be aware there are a lot of caging of lower quality that try to copy HQ Cages design.  Read this information about copy-cat cages.  HQ cages and copy-cat cages.

 

In addition to safe mechanical design features, an all important consideration in the manufacture of a totally safe cage is the finish.  HQ applies the polyester finish to the cages using a powder-coat paint system at 450 degrees temperature.  The HQ paint process yields unparalleled adherence of the finish eliminating the paint stripping problems common with other cages.  HQ paints contain only ultra-safe levels of toxic elements and contain NO lead.  In general, the white color paint is most prone to contain heavy metals such as zinc.   The HQ white paint has been tested at Louisiana Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory and the zinc content is reported at 80 ppm, a more than safe level (270 ppm is considered the maximum safe content).  The nonporous finishes are very easy to clean as food and droppings tend not to cling to the surface.

 

HQ cages are packaged and shipped disassembled for ease and efficiency of transport.  Many engineered features make assembly of HQ cages both rapid and simple.  For example, nuts are captive in the channels so that the assembler need only thread in the bolts, which are always supplied in more than ample quantity.  Food dishes are provided in ample quantity and are stainless steel.   Seed guards, or "skirts" are also provided and attach with a simple corner-clip method allowing for easy removal and replacement when cleaning.
