Power Mesh Fabric Sourcing Program for Sock and Hosiery Makers: Bags
Power Mesh Fabric Programme for Sock and Hosiery Makers: Bags
This programme covers the full path from a power mesh fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for sock and hosiery makers. 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 bags, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in power mesh 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 JIS L Standards
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Polyester — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Rubber — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- Nylon — selected for colour depth and finish stability
- Copper — best balance of cost, availability and test performance

FAQ
Which compliance documents do you provide?
JIS L Standards 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.
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.
How long does sampling take?
14 working days for the first sample, with 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
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.
