MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Ten steps that take your project from brief to shipment
We run every project through the same ten steps, record each critical approval in writing and report progress to you regularly.
Lead time depends on order quantity and product construction, and is confirmed in writing with the quotation for each project.
THE STEPS
Explore each step with its owner and control point
-
01Step
Brief and feasibility review
You share your artwork, quantity, size, target market and delivery target; we assess with our design team whether the model can be produced as drawn.
-
02Step
Quotation and project plan
We set out unit price, sample fee and payment schedule in a written quotation; your project lead time is confirmed in writing alongside it.
-
03Step
Technical design and material selection
Our design team prepares the tech pack, pattern dimensions and the fabric and filling selection, and we match fabric colours to Pantone references.
-
04Step
Sample and revision
Our sample workshop produces a physical sample and we share photos and video with you; two rounds of revision are included.
-
05Step
Pre-production sample (PPS)
We build the final sample with production materials; once approved, the PPS becomes the manufacturing standard every piece off the line is checked against.
-
06Step
Material sourcing and incoming inspection
We source fabric, fibre and accessories to the approved specification and inspect every incoming lot before it enters production.
-
07Step
Cutting and sewing
We cut panels by CNC and assemble them on sewing lines set up for the model; the first piece off the line is checked against the PPS and approved.
-
08Step
Filling and finishing
We fill, close and fit accessories, and in-line inspection tracks dimensions, stitching and appearance at each station.
-
09Step
Final inspection and testing
Every unit passes 100% metal detection; we carry out final inspection to the AQL 2.5 plan and set aside laboratory samples for the target market.
-
10Step
Packing and delivery
We prepare labels, polybags, cartons and shipping documents, and share a loading report with you before dispatch.
