Polar Fleece Fabric with Silicone Wash Finish for Luggage
This polar fleece 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 silicone wash finish surface, the 210 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps luggage 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 shrinkage that only showed up after the first wash, or reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.

FAQ
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 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.
How long does sampling take?
14 working days for the first sample, with 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
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.
