Eyelash Lace Sourcing Program for Hat and Cap Makers
Eyelash Lace Programme for Hat and Cap Makers
This programme covers the full path from a eyelash lace requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for hat and cap makers. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 20 mm Width, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one.
The most common failure in eyelash lace 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 ISO 9001
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- ABS Resin — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Recycled PET — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Genuine Leather — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Glass — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering

FAQ
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.
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.
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.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
ISO 9001 documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
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.
