Elastic Cord with Epoxy Doming for Uniforms
This elastic cord is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the epoxy doming surface, the 38 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps uniforms 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 zipper puller that broke under pull test at the warehouse, or an interlining that bubbled after the first press. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
