Stud Trim with Mercerised Finish for Dresses
This stud 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 mercerised finish surface, the 3# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps dresses 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.

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.
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.
Can you match a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we reverse engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk commitment.
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.
Send the reference sample or tech pack and we will come back with a costed specification, a sampling timetable and the compliance documents your market requires.
