Pongee Fabric Sourcing Program for Hospitals and Clinics

Pongee Fabric Programme for Hospitals and Clinics

This programme covers the full path from a pongee 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 450 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one.

The most common failure in pongee 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

• PU Leather — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
• Neoprene — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
• Brass — selected for colour depth and finish stability
• Rubber — selected for colour depth and finish stability

2. Material and finish proposal with costed alternatives
3. Counter sample built from your tech pack or reference sample
4. Approval, testing and pre-production sign-off
5. Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting

FAQ

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.

Which compliance documents do you provide?

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

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.
