Cord Lock with Mercerised Finish for Workwear
This cord lock is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the mercerised finish surface, the 3# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps workwear 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 zipper puller that broke under pull test at the warehouse, or reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

Yes. Send the reference and we reverse engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk commitment.

Standard MOQ is 500 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
How long does sampling take?
7 working days for the first sample, with 3 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
