French Terry Fabric Sourcing Program for Bridal Studios

French Terry Fabric Programme for Bridal Studios

This programme covers the full path from a french terry fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for bridal studios. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 180 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one.

The most common failure in french terry fabric 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 WRAP
• Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
• Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm

Recommended specifications

• Cotton — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
• POM Plastic — selected for colour depth and finish stability
• Stainless Steel — selected for colour depth and finish stability
• Zinc Alloy — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering

FAQ

Which compliance documents do you provide?

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

What happens if a bulk lot fails inspection?

The lot is reworked or remade at our cost. Inspection reports are shared before the balance payment is due.

Can you match a physical sample?

Yes. Send the reference and we reverse engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk commitment.

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.

If you are comparing suppliers, send us the spec they quoted against. We will quote the same spec and show you where the difference sits.
