Lace Fabric Sourcing Program for Yacht and Marine Interiors: Scarves
Lace Fabric Programme for Yacht and Marine Interiors: Scarves
This programme covers the full path from a lace fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for yacht and marine interiors. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 210 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around scarves, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in lace 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 AATCC Test Methods
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Nickel Silver — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Ceramic — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Recycled PET — selected for colour depth and finish stability
- Glass — selected for colour depth and finish stability

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
