Pearl Button with Mercerised Finish for Activewear
This pearl button is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the mercerised finish surface, the 12 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps activewear 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 MOQ that was quoted per colourway rather than per style. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
