Ceramic Cord Stopper for Lingerie — Specification, Uses and Sourcing Notes
Ceramic Cord Stopper for Lingerie: Specification, Uses and Sourcing Notes
Ceramic Cord Stopper is the version buyers specify for lingerie when the base material is fixed by performance rather than by price. This entry sets out what the material actually changes, which specification to write into the tech pack, and where the cost sits — the three questions that decide whether the item passes bulk approval.
What it is
Ceramic gives cord stopper its weight-to-strength ratio. In practice that means the trim behaves differently in cutting, in finishing and in wear: tighter tolerance is needed on the finished dimension. Buyers who specify the material up front avoid the most common failure — an item that looks right on the sample card and behaves differently in bulk.

Properties that matter in buying

- Colour fastness — tested to REACH SVHC Screening on the actual base material, not on a substitute.
- Mechanical performance — abrasion resistance after 20 cycles or washes.
- Compliance — REACH SVHC Screening documentation issued with the shipment.
- Consistency — the approved counter sample becomes the reference for every reorder.

How to specify it
- Name the base material in the tech pack, not just the item.

- Order the test report against the standard your market requires.
- Retain a golden sample at the factory and a second one with you.
