Interlock Knit Fabric for a Baby Product Brand in Belgium
A Baby Product Brand approached us with a interlock knit fabric requirement for the Belgium market. The brief was specific: a defined look, a hard launch date and a unit cost that had to survive freight and duty. This case study records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order was delivered.
The challenge
- A zipper puller that broke under pull test at the warehouse
- An interlining that bubbled after the first press
- Shade drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk lot
What we specified
| Item | Interlock Knit Fabric |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Baby Product Brand |
| Market | Belgium |
| Order volume | 50,000 pieces across 4 specifications |
| Base material | Wood |
| Standard size | 360 gsm |
| Finish | Rose Gold Plating |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 6 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
| Compliance | RoHS |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the specification around Wood and locked the tolerance before bulk.
- The finish was moved to Antique Brass Plating after strike-off tests showed better durability.
- A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and ratio specification.
Result
- 50,000 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the original quotation.
- Inspection-related rejection stayed under 0.5%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Approve a pre-production sample made from the actual bulk base material. Substitute material behaves differently in finishing.
