Buckle with Black Nickel Finish for Kidswear
This buckle is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the black nickel finish surface, the 5# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps kidswear 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 cartons packed to the factory ratio instead of the buyer's size ratio, 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 is the minimum order quantity?
Standard MOQ is 2000 per style per colour. Mixed colourways can be combined on the same spec if the base material is identical.
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.
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.
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.
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.
