Camouflage Print Fabric Sourcing Program for Costume and Theatre: Shirts
Camouflage Print Fabric Programme for Costume and Theatre: Shirts
This programme covers the full path from a camouflage print fabric requirement to a repeatable bulk supply for costume and theatre. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the base material, the 80 gsm, the finish and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one. It is built around shirts, which is where most of the specification detail sits.
The most common failure in camouflage print 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 CPSIA
- Bulk production with in-line inspection and photo reporting
- Packing, documentation and shipment under the agreed Incoterm
Recommended specifications
- Stainless Steel — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Aluminium — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Nylon — used when strength and abrasion resistance come first
- Silicone — selected for colour depth and finish stability

FAQ
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.
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?
7 working days for the first sample, with 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
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.
Share the programme details and we will propose two alternatives — one optimised for unit cost, one for lead time — and let you choose.
