Brocade Fabric Sourcing Program for Hospitals and Clinics
Brocade Fabric Programme for Hospitals and Clinics
This programme covers the full path from a brocade fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for hospitals and clinics. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 140 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one.
The most common failure in brocade 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 JIS L Standards
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Ceramic — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Rubber — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Stainless Steel — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Genuine Leather — best balance of cost, availability and test performance

FAQ
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 500 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
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.
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.
Tell us the item, the quantity and the delivery window. We will quote it with the sub-processes named, so the lead time you approve is the lead time you get.
