Drawstring Cord with Yarn-Dyed Finish for Underwear
This drawstring 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 yarn-dyed finish surface, the 15 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps underwear 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 elastic that lost recovery after three washes, 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.

FAQ
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.
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.
Can you handle our own artwork or tooling?
Yes. Artwork files or existing tooling can be used; we confirm tolerances in writing before the first production run.
Do you hold stock for reorders?
Approved specifications are kept on file and, for repeat programmes, base material can be reserved against a rolling forecast.
Share the programme details and we will propose two alternatives — one optimised for unit cost, one for lead time — and let you choose.
