Stretch Denim Fabric Sourcing Program for Maternity Wear Brands: Gloves
Stretch Denim Fabric Programme for Maternity Wear Brands: Gloves
This programme covers the full path from a stretch denim fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for maternity wear brands. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 400 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around gloves, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in stretch denim 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 ISO 105 Colour Fastness
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- POM Plastic — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- Bamboo — selected for colour depth and finish stability
- Stainless Steel — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Iron — best balance of cost, availability and test performance

FAQ
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 2000 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
How long does sampling take?
10 working days for the first sample, with 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
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.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
ISO 105 Colour Fastness documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
