Rickrack Trim with Black Nickel Finish for Activewear
This rickrack trim is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the black nickel finish surface, the 10# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps activewear 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 shrinkage that only showed up after the first wash, or MOQ that was quoted per colourway rather than per style. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
