Care Label Sourcing Program for Craft and Hobby Wholesalers: Lingerie
Care Label Programme for Craft and Hobby Wholesalers: Lingerie
This programme covers the full path from a care label requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for craft and hobby wholesalers. 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 lingerie, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in care label 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 Bluesign
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Genuine Leather — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Nickel Silver — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Nylon — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Zinc Alloy — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first

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