Bra Strap Sourcing Program for Bag and Luggage Makers

Bra Strap Programme for Bag and Luggage Makers

This programme covers the full path from a bra strap requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for bag and luggage makers. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 15 mm Width, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one.

The most common failure in bra strap sourcing is not price — it is drift. A base material changes mill, the shade moves, a plating bath changes and the item quietly stops matching the approved sample. We prevent that with a written spec, an approved counter sample and a golden sample retained at the factory.

What the programme covers

• Specification build from your tech pack or a physical reference sample
• Base material and finish options with costed alternatives
• Sampling, testing and approval against GRS
• Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
• Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm

Recommended specifications

• Recycled PET — selected for colour depth and finish stability
• Copper — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
• Acrylic — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
• Polyester — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering

FAQ

Which compliance documents do you provide?

GRS documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.

Can you handle our own artwork or tooling?

Yes. Artwork files or existing tooling can be used; we confirm tolerances in writing before the first production run.

Do you hold stock for reorders?

Approved specifications are kept on file and, for repeat programmes, base material can be reserved against a rolling forecast.

What are the payment and delivery terms?

Standard terms are a deposit with the order and the balance before shipment, under EXW / FOB / CIF / DDP as agreed.
