How it works
From your idea to your cartons.
If you've never had anything manufactured before, this is the whole thing, start to finish — what happens, what we'll need from you, and when.
Never done this before?
You don’t need a tech pack to start.
A tech pack is the document factories usually work from — measurements, materials, construction notes, where the artwork sits. It is useful. It is not a requirement, and not having one is not a reason to wait.
A sketch or a reference photo, a rough quantity and the date you want it by is enough for us to quote and to tell you what else we’ll need. Plenty of what we make is somebody’s first collection.
Anything below you haven’t settled yet, leave open. We’ll ask.
The sequence
How an order runs.
Six stages. The column that matters most is the one headed You — what will be asked of you, and when.
- 01
Enquiry & quote
Timing to confirm
We
We read the spec, ask two or three questions, and price the job whole rather than by the stage — so you’re comparing one number, not five.
You
Send what you have. A sketch, a reference photo and a rough quantity is enough.
You get A written quote and an indicative schedule.
- 02
Cloth & sampling
Timing to confirm
We
We source the cloth, digitize the artwork, and sew it out on the cloth you’ll actually be using.
You
Approve the cloth swatch. Say so if the colour or the hand isn’t right — this is the cheap moment to change it.
You get Cloth swatches and a sew-out, in your hands.
- 03
Your approval
Timing to confirm
We
We hold. Nothing runs at volume until you’ve signed the sample off.
You
Look at the physical sample rather than a screen render. Approve it, or send it back with notes.
You get A pre-production sample you have approved.
Bulk does not start without this.
- 04
Bulk production
Timing to confirm
We
Embroidery runs, then cutting and stitching, with placement held true across the size run.
You
Nothing. We send progress photographs; you don’t have to chase them.
You get The run made up.
- 05
Finishing & checks
Timing to confirm
We
Every piece checked, counted, tagged and pressed. Anything off standard is pulled and remade.
You
Confirm labelling and tagging, if that isn’t already settled.
You get Pre-shipment photographs, before anything is packed.
Nothing ships before you have seen these.
- 06
Packing & dispatch
Timing to confirm
We
Packed to your specification and handed to your forwarder, or shipped by us.
You
Confirm the destination and who’s collecting.
You get Cartons on their way, with the documents.
Approvals
Three points where we stop.
Nothing moves past any of them without a yes from you. A screen render is not a yes.
The sew-out
Your artwork, digitized and stitched on your cloth. If the density is wrong, or a colour reads differently against the ground than it did on screen, this is where it gets found and fixed.
The pre-production sample
A finished garment, made the way the run will be made. Bulk does not start until you have had it in your hands and said yes. A screen render is not approval.
Pre-shipment photographs
The finished run, photographed before it is packed. Nothing leaves until you have seen them.
Lead times
Sourcing, digitizing and sampling sit ahead of the production clock — artwork approved early buys a tighter schedule.

If something’s wrong
Sometimes a run misses. Here’s what then.
Anything found off standard at finishing is pulled and remade before the run is counted — that part happens before you ever see it, and it is on us.
If something reaches you that doesn’t match the sample you approved, tell us with photographs. Where it’s ours, we remake it. The exact terms — tolerance on quantity, who carries the freight on a remake — are written into your quote rather than left to be argued about later.
The specifics of that policy are being confirmed and will be stated here plainly.

The words
Ten terms you’ll meet, in plain English.
- Tech pack
- The document a factory usually works from — measurements, materials, construction notes, artwork placement. Useful, not required. We will quote from a sketch.
- Digitizing
- Turning artwork into a stitch file the machine can read. It sets stitch type, direction and density, which is why two factories can embroider the same design and get different results.
- Sew-out
- A test stitching of your design on your cloth, before any garment is made. Also called a strike-off.
- MOQ
- Minimum order quantity — the smallest run a factory will take. It usually moves with the cloth and the density of the embroidery.
- GSM
- Grams per square metre: how heavy a cloth is. Worth knowing when you’re comparing two fabrics that look the same in a photograph.
- Grading
- Scaling one pattern up and down into a full size run.
- Size run
- The set of sizes you’re making, and how many pieces in each.
- PP sample
- Pre-production sample. A finished garment made the way the bulk will be made, for you to approve before the run starts.
- Overage / shortfall
- Finishing slightly over or under the quantity ordered. Normal in garment production; the tolerance belongs in the quote.
- Incoterms
- The shorthand — EXW, FOB, CIF, DDP — for who pays the freight and who carries the risk at each point between our door and yours.

Start at stage one.
A sketch, a rough quantity and a date is enough. We'll take it from there and tell you what else we need.
