Guipure Lace with Soft-Touch Rubber Coating for Caps
This guipure lace is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the soft-touch rubber coating surface, the 32 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps caps 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 a trim that passed sampling but failed in-line because it was never cycle tested. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
