Fabric development for OEM and ODM programmes
From a photograph, a sketch or a reference garment to a production-ready article: yarn and construction proposals, dyeing and printing development, approvals and a documented standard.
Two ways to work with us
OEM — we make your specification
You bring the article: composition, weight, width, colour reference or Pantone number, finishing and performance requirement. We identify the mill or finishing house in the cluster that can produce it, arrange the sample and lab dip, and manage the order to that written standard.
ODM — we develop the article for you
You bring an idea: a mood, a reference garment, a print file or a target price. We propose a construction and a finishing route, produce a development sample, and adjust until it matches the commercial target. Designs developed this way stay exclusive to your programme.
Development steps
- 1
Brief
Reference, target composition, weight, hand, colour or print, performance requirement and quantity.
- 2
Proposal
Construction and finishing options with the price and lead time consequence of each route.
- 3
Development sample
Lab dip, hanger or strike-off, dispatched for approval with the retained standard kept on file.
- 4
Approval & confirmation
Signed standard, confirmed specification sheet, MOQ and delivery window.
- 5
Bulk & inspection
Production follow-up, four-point inspection, defect report and shipment.
What we can develop
Exclusivity and documentation
Articles developed from your brief are not offered to other buyers while your programme is active. Where a programme needs certification or testing — fibre content, colour fastness, shrinkage, water repellency — we arrange third-party tests and keep the reports with the order file.
