Paracord with Anodised Finish for Underwear
This paracord is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the anodised finish surface, the 5# Gauge 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 a spec that lived in an email instead of a tech pack, or an interlining that bubbled after the first press. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
