Buttonhole Elastic with Piece-Dyed Finish for Workwear
This buttonhole elastic is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the piece-dyed finish surface, the 15 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps workwear consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is a compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped, or a zipper puller that broke under pull test at the warehouse. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
