Paper Hang Tag Sourcing Program for Hat and Cap Makers: Blouses
Paper Hang Tag Programme for Hat and Cap Makers: Blouses
This programme covers the full path from a paper hang tag requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for hat and cap makers. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 20 mm Width, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around blouses, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in paper hang tag 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
- Brass — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Nylon — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Zinc Alloy — selected for colour depth and finish stability
- Nickel Silver — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first

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