Melton Wool Fabric with Powder Coating for Luggage
This melton wool fabric is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The fabric construction is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the powder coating surface, the 360 gsm 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 a trim that passed sampling but failed in-line because it was never cycle tested, or a compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
