Hook and Eye Tape with UV Printing for Luggage
This hook and eye tape is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the uv printing surface, the 9 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps luggage 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 cartons packed to the factory ratio instead of the buyer's size ratio, or an interlining that bubbled after the first press. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
