Tassel Trim Sourcing Program for Swimwear Brands: Bedding Sets
Tassel Trim Programme for Swimwear Brands: Bedding Sets
This programme covers the full path from a tassel trim requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for swimwear brands. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 25 mm Width, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around bedding sets, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in tassel trim 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 California Prop 65
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Wood — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Acrylic — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Ceramic — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Genuine Leather — best balance of cost, availability and test performance

FAQ
How long does sampling take?
10 working days for the first sample, with 3 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
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.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 3000 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
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.
