Sewing Thread with Sandblasted Finish for Upholstery
This sewing thread is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the sandblasted finish surface, the 5# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps upholstery 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 reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel, or an interlining that bubbled after the first press. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
How long does sampling take?
7 working days for the first sample, with 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
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.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
CPSIA documentation is issued with the shipment. Test reports can be ordered against any additional standard you nominate.
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.
