Fleece Fabric Sourcing Program for Maternity Wear Brands: Yoga Wear
Fleece Fabric Programme for Maternity Wear Brands: Yoga Wear
This programme covers the full path from a fleece 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 yoga wear, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in fleece 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 Sedex SMETA
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Nickel Silver — best balance of cost, availability and test performance
- ABS Resin — selected for colour depth and finish stability
- Rubber — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Iron — selected for colour depth and finish stability

FAQ
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 handle our own artwork or tooling?
Yes. Artwork files or existing tooling can be used; we confirm tolerances in writing before the first production run.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 1000 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
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.
