Flannel Fabric with Antique Brass Plating for Backpacks
This flannel 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 antique brass plating surface, the 240 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps backpacks 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 shade drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk lot, 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.

FAQ
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.

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 5 days per revision round. Plated or dyed-to-match items add a few days.
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.
