Coated Fabric Sourcing Program for Pet Product Brands: Bras
Coated Fabric Programme for Pet Product Brands: Bras
This programme covers the full path from a coated fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for pet product brands. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 180 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around bras, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in coated 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
- Copper — selected for colour depth and finish stability
- Polyester — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Brass — chosen when the item has to survive repeated laundering
- POM Plastic — selected for colour depth and finish stability

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 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.
Send the reference sample or tech pack and we will come back with a costed specification, a sampling timetable and the compliance documents your market requires.
