Denim Fabric for a Pet Product Brand in Poland
A Pet Product Brand approached us with a denim fabric requirement for the Poland 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
- An interlining that bubbled after the first press
- A compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped
- Lead time quoted without the plating or dyeing sub-process
What we specified
| Item | Denim Fabric |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Pet Product Brand |
| Market | Poland |
| Order volume | 100,000 pieces across 2 specifications |
| Base material | Genuine Leather |
| Standard size | 140 gsm |
| Finish | UV Printing |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 4 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
| Compliance | WRAP |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the specification around Genuine Leather and locked the tolerance before bulk.
- The finish was moved to Rose Gold 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
- 100,000 pieces delivered inside the 4-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the original quotation.
- Inspection-related rejection stayed under 2.0%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Lock the material standard before sampling. Once the base changes, every downstream approval has to be redone and the calendar slips.
