Boiled Wool Fabric with Gunmetal Finish for Swimwear
This boiled wool fabric is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The fabric construction is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the gunmetal finish surface, the 210 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps swimwear 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 an interlining that bubbled after the first press, or a spec that lived in an email instead of a tech pack. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
